49ers Reacquire DeForest Buckner in Trade With Colts
The San Francisco 49ers have reacquired defensive tackle DeForest Buckner in a trade with the Indianapolis Colts.
Wilkes Barre Scranton Hazleton, PA, October 27, 2026 —
The San Francisco 49ers have reacquired defensive tackle DeForest Buckner in a trade with the Indianapolis Colts, according to the information provided about the transaction.
The available details confirm the teams involved, Buckner’s position and the move’s basic form: a trade. The summary does not state when the deal was completed, what the 49ers sent to Indianapolis, or whether additional players or draft picks were included. It also does not provide contract information or say whether either team announced further terms.
Buckner is identified as a defensive tackle, and the word “reacquired” indicates that the 49ers had previously had him before this reported return. No details were provided about the timing or circumstances of his earlier departure, so those aspects of his history with the team cannot be established from the information available here.
The report does not include statements from Buckner, the 49ers or the Colts. It also does not provide information about a medical examination, roster status, a scheduled introduction or the teams’ plans following the trade. Those details remain unspecified in the summary.
As a result, the confirmed account is limited to the central transaction: San Francisco has brought Buckner back through a trade with Indianapolis. The trade compensation, timing and any accompanying announcements were not provided.
