Fred Warner has been one of the NFL’s most reliable linebackers since entering the league in 2018. He has shown outstanding consistency, missing just one out of 122 games. That dedication made the news from Sunday’s game all the more jarring. During the 49ers’ 30-19 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers , Warner suffered a severe right ankle injury just under eight minutes into the first quarter. But his spirits are not lost. He has penned a heartfelt note for his fans.
“There’s certain game you wake up knowing it’s gonna be your day, and yesterday was one of those days. I knew I was bout to go off, and then boom, everything over in one instant that was completely unpreventable. The love everyone has shown me and the prayers being had for me mean the world to me,” the 28-year-old wrote on
