The San Francisco 49ers have selected defensive lineman Gracen Halton<\/a> from the University of Oklahoma with the 107th-overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n

Halton played four seasons for the Sooners and emerged as one of the team’s most disruptive defensive linemen during his final two seasons. A 2025 team captain, he earned SEC Defensive Lineman of the Week honors and All-SEC Second Team honors after totaling 33 tackles, 7.0 tackles for loss, and 3.5 sacks, while adding a team-high seven quarterback hurries and a fumble recovery returned for a touchdown. Across his career, Halton totaled 84 tackles, 16.5 tackles for loss, and 9.5 sacks.<\/p>\n

At the NFL Combine<\/a>, Halton impressed scouts with his quick first step, lateral agility, and ability to break through gaps as a pass rusher. Standing at 6’2 and 293 pounds, he ran a 4.82 40-yard dash and recorded a 36.5-inch vertical jump. His explosiveness stood out among his position group, ranking third among defensive tackles in the broad jump (9-foot-6) and posting the top vertical at the position.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The San Francisco 49ers have selected defensive lineman Gracen Halton from the University of Oklahoma with the 107th-overall…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":874430,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[2080],"tags":[34345,115868,118434,220,89420,19,353,354,7,352,581,88,270,6,1161,252,2624,2623],"class_list":{"0":"post-874429","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-san-francisco-49ers","8":"tag-2026-draft","9":"tag-2026-draft-news","10":"tag-2026-draft-round-4","11":"tag-49ers","12":"tag-brooke-evans","13":"tag-draft","14":"tag-english","15":"tag-english-articles","16":"tag-football","17":"tag-latest-app","18":"tag-netapp","19":"tag-news","20":"tag-news-draft","21":"tag-nfl","22":"tag-san-francisco","23":"tag-san-francisco-49ers","24":"tag-sanfrancisco","25":"tag-sanfrancisco49ers"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116466411359099731","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/874429","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=874429"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/874429\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/874430"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=874429"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=874429"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=874429"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
