This marks the fourth time Warner has earned PFWA All-NFL Team recognition, further cementing his status as one of the league's elite defenders. While the 49ers endured a disappointing 6-11 season, the veteran linebacker stood out with yet another remarkable campaign.


Despite suffering an ankle fracture in Week 4, Warner played in all 17 games this season. He amassed 131 tackles (five for a loss), one sack, two interceptions, seven passes defensed, four forced fumbles, and even scored a touchdown, per Pro Football Reference.

Warner has recorded at least 118 tackles in each of his seven NFL seasons, highlighting his impact on the field and consistency throughout his career.
