2025 Fantasy Outlook
There was no outlook written for Tatum Bethune in 2025. Check out the latest news below for more on his current fantasy value.
Signed a four-year, $4.1 million contract with the 49ers in May of 2024.
Ruled out for Week 12

November 22, 2025
Bethune (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Carolina, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
ANALYSIS
Bethune took over as the 49ers' starting middle linebacker in Week 7 after Fred Warner sustained a season-ending ankle injury against the Buccaneers in Week 6. However, Bethune suffered a high-ankle sprain against the Cardinals in Week 11, and the second-year linebacker will miss his first game of the regular season as a result. In his absence, Curtis Robinson will step up as the starting middle linebacker for Monday's game. Bethune will look to return to practice in at least a limited capacity ahead of the 49ers' Week 13 clash against the Browns.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Chance to fill in for Warner
LBSan Francisco 49ers
October 14, 2025
Bethune will be relied upon to fill the void left by Fred Warner's season-ending ankle injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Nick Martin would have been the obvious choice as a replacement, given his pedigree as a third-round pick in 2025. However, he has not yet been active this season, while Bethune racked up 10 tackles after Warner's departure in Week 6. That sets up the 2024 seventh-round pick for a big opportunity to prove himself as a starting-caliber defender.
