San Francisco 49ers defensive end Keion White was shot in the ankle early Monday morning, the team announced Monday.
'Keion White was a victim of a shooting and sustained a bullet wound to his ankle this morning in San Francisco. He is currently undergoing surgery at a local hospital. We will provide further updates when appropriate,' the 49ers wrote in a statement.
The incident reportedly happened at 4 a.m. PT and San Francisco Police spokesman Evan Sernoffsky told The Athletic that the altercation arose between two groups at an event White attended but White was believed not to have been involved with the altercation.
White was treated at San Francisco General Hospital for a non-life-threatening injury and is expected to be OK.
The 49ers acquired White, 26, on Oct. 28 from the New England Patriots. San Francisco sent its 2026 sixth-round pick to the Patriots in exchange for White and the Pats' 2026 seventh-round selection.
He was drafted in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft and has played in 47 games (20 starts) across three seasons. White has registered 100 tackles, 7.5 sacks, 9 passes defended and two forced fumbles between the Patriots and 49ers.
