Fantasy Impact:
With Mitchell out, Jeff Wilson Jr. becomes a strong play in all formats. In his six career starts, he had just as many touchdowns while averaging 95.9 scrimmage yards. As for Mitchell, he'll hope to return to practice next week. An MRI earlier in the week showed an irritation forcing the standout rookie to the sidelines. Expect wide receiver Deebo Samuel to continue with his heavy usage out of the backfield. JaMycal Hasty should assume some passing down work, but he's a desperation play at best.
