Christian McCaffrey Injury Update

McCaffrey (knee) suffered a PCL strain on Sunday night against the Bills. He has been placed on injured reserve and will miss at least six weeks, but he's pushing to return for the playoffs, should San Francisco qualify. With Jordan Mason (ankle) also on injured reserve, the 49ers will turn to Isaac Guerendo to lead their backfield.

 

Josh Jacobs Injury Update

Jacobs (calf) was listed as a limited participant again on Tuesday. He has a strong chance to play against the Lions on Thursday night. However, fantasy managers should stay tuned for the Packers' final injury report to see if Jacobs carries an official designation.

 

Bucky Irving Injury Update

Irving (hip) missed portions of Sunday's game but said that he felt a lot better on Monday. Barring any sort of setback, he should be good to go for Week 14 against the Raiders.

 

Austin Ekeler Injury Update

Ekeler (concussion) says that he is still dealing with concussion symptoms more than one week after suffering the injury. For the most part, he has experienced fogginess, noting that he doesn't remember leaving the field when he became concussed in Week 12. The veteran running back remains on injured reserve.

 

Jordan Mason Injury Update

Mason (ankle) has been placed on injured reserve. His injury comes at an awful time for the 49ers, who also lost McCaffrey (knee) for an extended period. Isaac Guerendo will lead the Niners backfield for now.

 

Roschon Johnson Injury Update

Johnson (concussion) has been sidelined since exiting last Thursday's game against the Lions. His status for Week 14 remains up in the air, but it's worth noting that Chicago added some extra depth by signing Demetric Felton to its practice squad.
