I'm Corey with the story.

The San Francisco 49ers got hammered by injuries all through their 2025 season, with

star players sidelined for big chunks of.

Time that likely cost them wins.

The NFL Players Association slapped the team's training room and staff with a C-grade,

pointing to real shortcomings in player care.

Player complaints from players highlighted missing hot and cold tub space, along with

busted showers and saunas that made recovery a hassle.

General manager John Lynch stepped up this week, announcing a $9 million overhaul this

offseason for the hydrotherapy zone, complete with new, cold tubs and hot tubs.

They're also bringing in three fresh physical therapists to beef up the crew.

Lynch broke it down like this.

Elite athletes craved at 101 Focus, and while the Niners were decently staffed, they weren't

leading the pack now, they're aiming to dominate there.

With luck still playing a role in injuries, these moves should build serious trust in the

team's prep and rehab game, setting up a healthier run next year.
