Arik Armstead Fantasy Stats

Jacksonville Jaguars defensive lineman Arik Armstead was presented with the 2024 Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year award at Thursday night's 2025 NFL Honors. Regarded as the highest honor in the league, the NFL Man of the Year award recognizes an athlete for his distinction on the field and exemplary community service off it. This was Armstead's fifth nomination for the award and first with the Jaguars. Additionally, he became the franchise's second recipient of the honor (Calais Campbell, 2019). The 31-year-old hasn't been the same force on the field that he was in years past. However, Thursday's stage provided an excellent platform to shine a light on his cause. He'll be back with the Jags' defensive unit for at least one more season

The Jacksonville Jaguars placed defensive lineman Arik Armstead (knee) on the Physically Unable to Perform list on Saturday. Armstead is not ready to practice with the rest of the team for the start of training camp after he had surgery to fix a torn meniscus in his right knee this offseason. Barring a setback in the 30-year-old's recovery, though, Armstead could be activated from the PUP list and be ready to go for the start of the 2024 regular season in Week 1 in September. The former 17th overall pick of the San Francisco 49ers in 2015 out of Oregon racked up 302 tackles (177 solo), 33.5 sacks, 43 tackles for loss and 88 QB hits in his nine seasons with the Niners before joining the Jaguars this offseason. He played in only 12 regular-season games in 2023 and had just 27 tackles (15 solo) and five sacks.

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson said on Monday that defensive lineman Arik Armstead (knee) should be cleared for the start of training camp in late July. Armstead had offseason surgery to fix a torn meniscus that Armstead played through during the team's run to the Super Bowl early this year. The 30-year-old veteran pass-rusher signed a three-year, $51 million deal with the Jaguars in free agency after recording 27 tackles (15 solo), five sacks, four tackles for loss and 13 QB hits in 12 regular-season starts in his ninth and final year in San Francisco. In addition to his knee injury, Armstead also missed time in 2023 with a foot injury. Armstead only played in nine games in 2022 due to injuries, which could become more of an issue now that he's on the wrong side of 30.

Former San Francisco 49ers defensive lineman Arik Armstead is expected to sign with the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The 30-year-old was officially released by the 49ers on Wednesday following his nine-year career with the organization. In 116 career games, Armstead has racked up 302 tackles, 33.5 sacks, three forced fumbles, three passes defended, and 27.5 run stuffs. He's one of the more underrated interior defensive linemen in the NFL, and he'll now join forces with All-Pro edge rusher Josh Allen in Duval County.

Longtime San Francisco 49ers defensive lineman Arik Armstead will be released by the organization, meaning he will hit the open free-agent market. Originally a first-round selection in the 2015 NFL Draft, Armstead has collected 302 tackles, 33.5 sacks, and six passes defended in 116 career games. He posted six tackles and a sack in Super Bowl LVIII against the Kansas City Chiefs last month. Although he is often overshadowed by his superstar teammates, Armstead is one of the better interior defensive linemen in the NFL, so the market for his services should be robust. It's worth noting Armstead underwent knee surgery this offseason to repair a torn meniscus, but he should be ready to go for the 2024 campaign.

San Francisco 49ers defensive tackle Arik Armstead (knee) reportedly suffered a torn meniscus in the team's win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Dec. 3 and he will need offseason surgery to fix it. The 2015 first-round pick missed the remainder of the regular season after the injury but returned for the Niners' three playoff games. He compiled 11 tackles, two run-stuffs, and one sack during the postseason. The injury should not affect his 2024 regular season status. The 49ers should continue to have one of the best defensive fronts in the NFL moving forward.

San Francisco 49ers defensive tackle Arik Armstead (ankle, foot), who hasn't played since Week 4, told reporters on Thursday that he plans to play in Week 13 against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. In his three games played in 2022, Armstead has five tackles (four solo) and a tackle for loss. The 29-year-old defensive tackle will be an upgrade in the trenches for the Niners, but he could be eased back into the rotation after the long layoff. Armstead put in a limited practice on Thursday. San Fran's defense/special teams unit is typically a top-five fantasy option, but they'll have their work cut out for them against the high-flying offense of the Dolphins this weekend.

San Francisco 49ers star defensive lineman Arik Armstead (foot), who came into the Monday night game against the Los Angeles Rams questionable with his foot injury, aggravated his foot injury and was ruled out for the rest of the game in the fourth quarter. The 28-year-old has been dealing with plantar fasciitis in his foot, and on a short week heading into Week 5 against the Carolina Panthers, Armstead might have a tough time getting cleared to play. With Armstead and Javon Kinlaw (knee) injured on the interior of the 49ers defensive line, backups Kevin Givens and Hassan Ridgeway have been pressed into more playing time on Monday against LA.

San Francisco 49ers defensive tackle Arik Armstead (foot) has been ruled inactive for the Sunday night game against the Denver Broncos in Week 3 after he missed practice all week. With Armstead sidelined, Hassan Ridgeway is expected to see more playing time on Sunday night on the road in Denver. Through two games this season, Armstead has been quiet on defense with no sacks, three solo tackles and one tackle for loss. The 49ers defense is still one of the best fantasy units in the league and could have another big game on Sunday night against a Broncos offense that has just two offensive touchdowns through their first two games.

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that defensive lineman Arik Armstead (knee) sprained his MCL in training camp practice and will be out for a few weeks. His knee injury isn't considered serious, so Armstead still has a chance to be ready for Week 1. The 28-year-old former first-round selection had a career-high 63 tackles (29 solo), six sacks, seven tackles for loss and 11 QB hits in 17 starts in his seventh season with the Niners. He's been extremely durable for the team's defensive line, playing full seasons each of the last four years.
