Latest news

49ers WR Deebo Samuel (hamstring) practices fully

David Lombardi on Twitter

Nov 09, 2022 · 4:42 PM EST

FULL 49ers' injury summary:

No practice:
Arik Armstead (foot/ankle)
Samson Ebukam (quad/Achilles)

Limited:
Jason Verrett (knee)
Dre Greenlaw (calf)

Full:
Deebo Samuel
Jauan Jennings
Kyle Juszczyk
Colton McKivitz*
Azeez Al-Shaair*
Elijah Mitchell*

*No official designation (IR)

Fantasy Impact:

Good news for Deebo owners. Samuel missed Week 8 with a hamstring injury which led up to the team's bye in Week 9. The extra rest seems to have helped, and it appears Samuel should be good to go in Week 10.

49ers Beat: RB Elijah Mitchell could get early down work

The Athletic

Oct 25, 2022 · 7:51 PM EDT

My guess is that Elijah Mitchell and Christian McCaffrey will be the main runners with Mitchell getting early-down carries and McCaffrey having more of a change-of-pace and third-down role.

Related players: Deebo Samuel

Fantasy Impact:

McCaffrey was getting 85 percent of the snaps for Carolina. The author said he can’t imagine the 49ers want his snap counts that high, and the hope seems to be that he and the oft-injured Mitchell will save each other wear and tear. In another question from the mailbag, the author said they could turn to a thunder-and-lightning-and-thunder combination of Samuel, McCaffrey and Mitchell.

Panthers trade Christian McCaffrey to the 49ers

Stunner: Panthers are trading Pro-Bowl RB Christian McCaffrey to the San Francisco 49ers in exchange for draft picks, sources tell ESPN.

McCaffrey returns to the Bay Area, where he attended Stanford.

Related players: D'Onta Foreman, Chuba Hubbard, Elijah Mitchell, Jeff Wilson

Fantasy Impact:

This should enhance McCaffrey's value since the 49ers run a more competent offense than the Panthers. Elijah Mitchell is no longer expected to be a fantasy starter upon his return from injury, and can be dropped if necessary. He's an attrition RB2 now. Jimmy Garoppolo should benefit by having such a good receiving back to throw to, but targets are already at a premium, so Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk and George Kittle each take a slight hit. In Carolina, we'll likely see a committee consisting of D'Onta Foreman on early downs and Chuba Hubbard as a third-down/change-of-pace back. On the season, Foreman has played 31 snaps while Hubbard has played 30. Foreman has 12 touches (all carries), while Hubbard has six carries and one reception.

49ers RB Tyrion Davis-Price (ankle) to miss a few weeks

Pro Football Talk

Sep 20, 2022 · 12:01 PM EDT

Head coach Kyle Shanahan said on Monday that third-round pick Tyrion Davis-Price is going to miss “a few weeks” after suffering a high-ankle sprain in Sunday’s win over the Seahawks.

Fantasy Impact:

The Niner RBs are falling fast as this comes after the team lost Mitchell for about 8 weeks, according to reports. With Wilson the lead back, Mason now becomes an injury away from possibly seeing a significant fantasy role. Juszczyk could continue to steal goal line TDs.
