Jordan Mason
RB - San Francisco 49ers - IR
This Week Outlook
Availability
Jordan Mason (ankle) has been placed on injured reserve.
Fantasy Impact
The 49ers' backfield is looking thin, as Mason joins Christian McCaffrey on injured reserve. This leaves Isaac Geurendo as the likely lead back, with Patrick Taylor Jr. and Israel Abanikanda also potentially seeing some touches. Geurendo becomes a priority waiver wire addition in all formats.
Jordan Mason (ankle) has been placed on injured reserve by the San Francisco 49ers according to Adam Schefter.
Fantasy Impact
Mason suffered an apparent high-ankle sprain late in San Francisco’s 35-10 blowout loss to the Bills Sunday night. The No. 2 running back joins Christian McCaffrey (knee) on injured reserve after last night’s contest, pushing Isaac Guerendo into the No.1 running back role ahead of Week 14 for head coach Kyle Shanahan.
Jordan Mason carried the ball 13 times for 78 yards in a 35-10 loss to the Bills in Week 13.
Fantasy Impact
Starting running back Christian McCaffrey suffered what may be a season-ending PCL injury in his knee and left before halftime, which pushed Mason back into the lead role, a role in which he thrived in the first half of the season. The veteran responded well on a cold, snowy evening in Buffalo, posting his best yardage game since October 6 against Arizona. With Mason looking like the 49ers' starting running back for the rest of the season, fantasy managers will want to check waiver wires this week to see if he is out there. The 49ers face the Bears in Week 14.
Jordan Mason carried the ball three times for eight yards in Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Green Bay Packers.
Fantasy Impact
Unsurprisingly, Mason had a bad game on Sunday. The 49ers weren't able to get anything going on offense, and the team made no real efforts to get him involved against the Packers. He will continue to be nothing more than a handcuff for Christian McCaffrey for the foreseeable future.
Jordan Mason ran for 13 yards on two carries in the 49ers 20-17 loss against the Seahawks.
Fantasy Impact
Mason has seen three carries in two games since the return of Christian McCaffrey. He remains the backup moving forward.
