Fantasy Impact:

Just days after an injury ended Raheem Mostert’s season, the 49ers will now look to Cannon to fill out their 53-man roster. He joins a crowded running back room that includes Elijah Mitchell, JaMycal Hasty and Trey Sermon. The 49ers also added running back Kerryon Johnson to their practice squad this week. In such a crowded room he likely won’t have any fantasy relevance, the concern is if he will take snaps away from those who do.
