News

  • Jets off to KC

    McKinnon is signing with the Chiefs, Peter Schrager of FOX Sports reports.

    Analysis: After missing back-to-back seasons with knee injuries, McKinnon finally suited up for the 49ers in 2020, recording 572 total yards and six TDs in 16 games. He finished the season with only 3.9 YPC despite picking up 55 yards on a single run, as he averaged 14.5 carries for only 44.3 yards in his four starts. McKinnon turns 29 next week and likely will need to compete for a roster spot this summer.

  • Plans to leave San Francisco

    McKinnon said he won't be re-signing with the 49ers, KNBR.com reports.

    Analysis: McKinnon used some pretty strong language, leaving no doubt he plans to find a new team. After missing the entire 2018 and 2019 campaigns due to knee injuries, the veteran running back played all 16 games in 2020, taking 81 carries for 319 yards and five touchdowns and adding 33 catches for 253 yards and another score. McKinnon made starts in Weeks 3,4, 9 and 10, but he otherwise worked as a passing-down specialist, getting just four carries over San Francisco's final six games of the season.…read more

  • Just four touches on offense

    McKinnon logged 10 offensive snaps (18 percent) Saturday, registering one carry for four yards and three receptions for 28 yards in a 20-12 win over Arizona.

    Analysis: McKinnon was still used in a reserve/receiving role even with Raheem Mostert (ankle) missing the contest. Instead of deploying his usual two-back attack, head coach Kyle Shanahan used Jeff Wilson Jr. (22 carries for 183 yards) as a bell cow with incredible results. We should see a similar backfield setup in the 49ers' season finale against the Seahawks on Sunday, giving McKinnon little to no fantasy value in Week 17.

  • Gets involved in passing game

    McKinnon did not receive a carry but caught both of his targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 41-33 loss to the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Co-starters Raheem Mostert (ankle) and Jeff Wilson (ankle) both suffered injuries late in the game, so Tevin Coleman (three carries for 11 yards) and McKinnon were called into action. The former handled early down work and the latter was used in passing situations, a scenario that is likely to repeat itself if the aforementioned backs are unable to heal on a short week leading up to Saturday's tilt against Arizona. Neither veteran backup is particularly appealing from a fantasy perspective…read more

  • Has zero offensive role Week 14

    McKinnon did not receive an offensive snap during Sunday's 23-15 loss to Washington.

    Analysis: McKinnon tallied touchdowns in four consecutive games (over 47 touches) Weeks 1 through 4, but he's now gone scoreless in four straight, while his offensive role has completely dissipated. Raheem Mostert's Week 12 return from a high-ankle sprain has certainly played into McKinnon's reduced involvement, as the former Viking has gotten only five touches since that point. Jeff Wilson, too, has become a backfield fixture of late, with double-digit carries in two of the past three weeks.

  • Active, but hardly utilized

    McKinnon garnered zero carries or targets over two offensive snaps during Monday's 34-24 loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: Jeff Wilson (seven carries), Raheem Mostert (nine) and Tevin Coleman (two) split the RB workload for San Francisco in a game script that consisted of nearly twice as many pass attempts (39) as rushes (21). It appears McKinnon may be the odd man out with Coleman having returned from a month-long absence. McKinnon does have six touchdowns and 27 receptions to his name this season, but the 28-year-old's rushed for an uninspiring 3.9 yards per carry over 80 attempts.

  • Totals 32 yards

    McKinnon had three carries for 21 yards and caught two of three targets for 11 yards during Sunday's 23-20 win over the Rams.

    Analysis: Raheem Mostert and Jeff Wilson had 16 and 12 carries, respectively, in their returns from injured reserve, leaving McKinnon to play a minor role. Playing time was split fairly even as none of three backs reached 30 offensive snaps, but Mostert and WIlson were clearing leading the backfield. McKinnon won't have fantasy relevance while they're healthy, especially with Tevin Coleman (knee) also nearing his return.

  • Avoids injury report

    McKinnon (neck) wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: McKinnon sustained a stinger in the 49ers' last game Week 10 at New Orleans, but with the benefit of a bye week, he managed to practice Wednesday without any restrictions. Meanwhile, Tevin Coleman (knee) was a limited participant, and San Francisco opened 21-day practice windows for Raheem Mostert (ankle) and Jeff Wilson (ankle) on Tuesday. Coach Kyle Shanahan termed each of the trio "day-to-day" Wednesday, so this backfield situation will be one to watch as this weekend's game against the Rams…read more

  • Suffers stinger in loss

    Coach Kyle Shanahan said after Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Saints that McKinnon suffered a stinger late in the game, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports reports.

    Analysis: Prior to the injury, McKinnon rushed 18 times for 33 yards and caught one of three targets for 13 yards. Fellow running back JaMycal Hasty left earlier in the contest with a collarbone injury, but San Francisco will have the benefit of a bye next week to allow the team's injury-riddled backfield to heal up.

  • Set for large workload

    McKinnon may be in line for a significant workload with Tevin Coleman (knee) ruled out for Sunday's contest at New Orleans, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: McKinnon handled a 74-percent share of the snaps on offense Week 9 against the Packers with Coleman sidelined and Raheem Mostert and Jeff Wilson on IR with ankle sprains. The result was 15 touches for 68 yards from scrimmage and one TD, while JaMycal Hasty played 26 percent of the plays en route to six touches for 13 yards. A similar breakdown of RB reps seems likely Sunday against a Saints defense that has yielded 100.8 total yards per game and five touchdowns to running backs in eight games…read more

  • Compiles 98 all-purpose yards

    McKinnon rushed 12 times for 52 yards and a touchdown and brought in three of four targets for 16 yards in the 49ers' 34-17 loss to the Packers on Thursday night. He also returned one kickoff for 30 yards.

    Analysis: McKinnon led the backfield in rushes with Raheem Mostert (IR-ankle) and Tevin Coleman (knee) both out, posting his highest carry total since Week 4. The seven-year pro had totaled just 13 rush attempts combined over the previous four games, so Thursday's boost in workload was certainly encouraging from a fantasy perspective. McKinnon now also has five rushing touchdowns on the campaign, and he'll have a chance to add to that total in a touch matchup against the Saints in a Week 10 battle on…read more

  • Sharing work with Hasty in Week 9

    McKinnon and JaMycal Hasty are expected to share the load at running back Thursday against the Packers, Matt Maiocco of NBC Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: With Tevin Coleman (knee) exiting early in Sunday's loss to the Seahawks, McKinnon and Hasty finished the contest as the 49ers' only healthy backs. McKinnon held a 35-29 advantage in snaps, but he was largely relegated to a passing-down role, carrying three times for minus-1 yard and a touchdown while adding four receptions for 40 yards on four targets. Meanwhile, Hasty was the clear lead option on the ground, carrying 12 times (for 29 yards and a touchdown). The 49ers have ruled Coleman out…read more

  • Leads all backs in snaps

    McKinnon logged 35 offensive snaps (50 percent) en route to a final line of three carries for a loss of one yard and one touchdown and four receptions for 40 yards in Sunday's 37-27 loss to Seattle.

    Analysis: Tevin Coleman returned to the field after a lengthy layoff before promptly departing with a knee injury, leaving McKinnon as the most-experienced back yet again. Despite leading all backs in snap share, it was undrafted rookie JaMycal Hasty (12 carries for 29 yards and a touchdown) who took over the early-down work. McKinnon even had a receiving touchdown called back upon review, only to see his first-year counterpart finish the job and get credit for the score. With a quick turnaround heading…read more

  • Set to share load

    McKinnon could be forced to share the load with Tevin Coleman (ankle), who was activated off injured reserve Saturday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: The 49ers continue to make their backfield a frustrating endeavor to speculate on, as JaMycal Hasty was already considered a possible suspect to whittle into McKinnon's workload even before the news regarding Coleman's activation. Both Coleman and McKinnon were hardly effective ball carriers in their most recent respective stints as the starter so a combination of all three running backs is certainly also in play. The only thing that's clear at the moment is someone will be named "a starter"…read more

  • Role set to expand

    The 49ers may have to rely on McKinnon heavily in the coming weeks after Jeff Wilson (17 carries, 112 yards and three touchdowns) was carted off the field late in Sunday's 33-6 win over New England with a high-ankle sprain, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: The 49ers continue to be dealt blow after blow each week in terms of key players going down to injury, and this week it struck yet another 100-yard rusher in Wilson. It sounds like the fill-in starter will miss multiple weeks, opening the door for McKinnon -- who disappointed in what looked to be his game to shine -- moving forward. Head coach Kyle Shanahan mentioned that he was trying to give McKinnon some rest after being used heavily in recent weeks and also dealing with a rib injury, but it…read more

  • Poised for start in Foxborough

    McKinnon is expected to make his third start of the season Sunday against the Patriots, Can Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Analysis: McKinnon played 62 and 92 percent of snaps in his previous two starts, averaging 14 carries, six targets, 87 total yards and one touchdown per game. However, he managed only 3.3 yards per carry, and the 49ers mostly leaned on JaMycal Hasty after top back Raheem Mostert (ankle) suffered another injury during last week's 24-16 win over the Rams. There's no doubt McKinnon offers upside, but it isn't clear he'll have the same every-down role that made him so valuable the first time Mostert missed…read more

  • Has 28 yards on eight touches

    McKinnon rushed six times for 18 yards and caught two balls for 10 more yards in Sunday's 24-16 win over the Rams.

    Analysis: McKinnon struggled to get anything going for the second week in a row since Raheem Mostert (ankle) returned from injury to reclaim his starting role. The latter suffered yet another injury and had to sit out the second half. It didn't look to be too serious, but there's been no confirmation on whether Mostert will have to miss any time. McKinnon clearly would benefit from becoming the lead back again, as he averaged 13.6 combined touches and 83.6 yards from scrimmage with a touchdown per game…read more

  • Just three touches Sunday

    McKinnon rushed once for no gain and caught two passes (four targets) for five yards in Sunday's 43-17 loss to Miami.

    Analysis: Raheem Mostert (knee) returned to reclaim his starting job, leaving scraps for McKinnon and the rest of the running back corps in an ugly loss. Jeff Wilson ended up with more carries (four) while playing nearly the same amount of snaps as McKinnon (25 percent), so it appears the latter will serve as the team's third-down back when Mostert is healthy. The 49ers could be playing from behind during a rough stretch of games ahead, so McKinnon could produce in the passing game, but the return of…read more

  • Solid line in defeat

    McKinnon (ribs) rushed 14 times for 54 yards and a touchdown, adding 43 yards on seven receptions (eight targets) in Sunday's 25-20 loss to the Eagles.

    Analysis: McKinnon was dealing with a rib contusion stemming from last week's win over the Giants, but it clearly did not limit the tailback. The 28-year-old dominated the backfield touches, receiving 14 of 17 rushing attempts and eight of nine targets. It is unclear whether Raheem Mostert (knee) will be able to return against the Dolphins on Sunday, but if he remains sidelined, McKinnon will be a strong fantasy play as the starter in a soft matchup.

    Analysis: McKinnon emerged from the 49ers' Week 3 victory versus the Giants with a rib contusion, but not before turning 17 touches into 77 yards from scrimmage and one touchdown. With an uncapped practice under his belt, McKinnon is ready to split the backfield reps with Jeff Wilson (15 touches, 69 total yards, two scores Week 3) this Sunday against the Eagles. Considering Raheem Mostert (knee) likely will sit out this weekend, JaMycal Hasty may be the only other contender for touches out of the San…read more

    McKinnon has been diagnosed with a rib contusion in the aftermath of Sunday's 36-9 road win against the Giants, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: With Raheem Mostert (knee) inactive and Tevin Coleman (knee) on injured reserve, the 49ers turned to McKinnon as their lead running back Week 3. Receiving 62 percent of the snaps on offense, McKinnon accounted for 17 touches, 77 yards from scrimmage and one touchdown. After the contest, though, it was revealed that he suffered a rib injury, which has been clarified as a bruise and leaves him day-to-day.

  • Hurts ribs Sunday

    McKinnon emerged from Sunday's 36-9 win against the Giants with a rib injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports. Overall, McKinnon had 14 carries for 38 yards and one touchdown while reeling in three of four targets for 39 yards.

    Analysis: With Raheem Mostert and Tevin Coleman sidelined with sprained knees, McKinnon got the start at running back for the 49ers, but only one of his 17 touches occurred in the fourth quarter. It appears McKinnon hurt his ribs, which allowed Jeff Wilson to rack up 15 touches, 69 yards from scrimmage and two TDs by game's end. Even practice-squad call-up Jamycal Hasty (three touches for 18 yards) got in on the act. As a result, fantasy managers will need to monitor McKinnon's situation closely this…read more

    McKinnon is expected to start Sunday's game against the Giants, ESPN.com's Nick Wagoner.

    Analysis: As expected, Raheem Mostert and Tevin Coleman both have been ruled out due to knee sprains. Coleman likely will be out for about a month, while Mostert appears week-to-week. McKinnon and Jeff Wilson are left as the healthy running backs on the active roster, though undrafted rookie JaMycal Hasty could be called up from the practice squad at any moment. While his injury history might create some concerns about workload management, McKinnon at least figures to take a decent chunk of the carries…read more

  • Headed for Week 3 start

    Coach Kyle Shanahan suggested McKinnon will fill in for Raheem Mostert (knee) and Tevin Coleman (knee) during Sunday's game against the Giants, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports. "I'm very confident in [McKinnon], and he's done a great job in all reps," Shanahan said. "With [Mostert and Coleman] being out, he should get more opportunities. He's excited for it and we're excited to see him."

    Analysis: Shanahan's quote all but confirms Mostert and Coleman will miss the game, leaving McKinnon as the top candidate to lead the San Francisco backfield. However, a starting job doesn't automatically equate to massive usage, as Shanahan has shown a strong preference for using multiple running backs in his game plans. Jeff Wilson could also get some work, especially near the goal line, and JaMycal Hasty may be promoted from the practice squad later this week.

  • Opportunity knocks

    McKinnon appears in line to lead the 49ers' backfield against the Giants on Sunday with both Raheem Mostert (knee) and Tevin Coleman (knee) expected to be sidelined, Josh Schrock of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: McKinnon showed off his versatility and explosiveness in limited work against the Jets in Week 2, when he logged three carries for 24 yards in addition to three catches for 20 yards and a score. If he's indeed given a starting workload against the Giants in Week 3, the 28-year-old's skill set would make him a high-ceiling fantasy option in coach Kyle Shanahan's run-friendly scheme. However, it's also possible that the 49ers could cap McKinnon's touches, given that he's coming off back-to-back…read more

  • Scores in 49ers debut

    McKinnon rushed three times for 24 yards and caught three passes (five targets) for 20 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Tevin Coleman (medical concerns) was limited in unhealthy air conditions, so McKinnon was elevated to primary backup behind Raheem Mostert. It was also the 28-year-old's first official game action with the 49ers after signing a big contract in 2018 and going through multiple major knee injuries. McKinnon ripped off a big 16-yard scamper at one point, but his trip to the end zone came on a swing pass out of the backfield. The passing game figures to be where Jet makes his impact when all three…read more

  • Could see elevated role Week 1

    McKinnon could be in line for primary backup duties behind Raheem Mostert if Tevin Coleman (health concern) is held out due to poor air conditions against the Cardinals on Sunday.

    Analysis: Coleman has sickle cell trait, which puts him at increased risk for contracting breathing problems in unhealthy air conditions like the current one in Santa Clara. The air quality index (AQI) sat between 150-200 Friday at Levi's Stadium, which is extremely poor for even a healthy human. Assuming the game doesn't get postponed, McKinnon would stand to benefit the most if Coleman is held out of the contest.

  • Looking good at camp

    McKinnon has looked sharp running routes through the first few days of training camp, according to Cam Inman of The Mercury News.

    Analysis: After missing the past two seasons with knee injuries, McKinnon is already earning praise from starting QB Jimmy Garoppolo, who said the 28-year-old "runs [routes] differently than most running backs" and "has a feel that's like a receiver." Passing downs represent McKinnon's clearest path to a significant Week 1 role, considering Raheem Mostert and Tevin Coleman combined for only 41 catches last season. The 49ers have used Kyle Juszczyk as the lone back on third downs at times, and while his…read more

    McKinnon's surgically repaired knee has responded well to strenuous workouts, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: After missing the past two seasons with knee injuries, McKinnon agreed to reduce his 2020 base salary from $6.5 million to $910,000. The new number gives him a much better shot to stick on the 53-man roster, though he will face some competition from Jeff Wilson and undrafted rookies JaMycal Hasty and Salvon Ahmed. Meanwhile, presumed lead back Raheem Mostert has submitted a trade request, apparently frustrated with a lack of progress toward his desired pay raise. The 49ers also have Tevin…read more

  • Could handle passing downs

    McKinnon could have a role on third downs this upcoming season, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: The San Francisco backfield became a bit less crowded when Matt Breida was traded to Miami on the third day of the 2020 NFL Draft. Raheem Mostert and Tevin Coleman are left as the clear favorites for carries, but McKinnon could be the top pick for the third-down role if he can prove he's back at full strength after missing the past two seasons with knee injuries. He accepted a pay cut in April to stay with the 49ers, one month after GM John Lynch declared the veteran running back healthy. The…read more

  • Agrees to restructured deal

    The 49ers and McKinnon agreed to a restructured contract for the 2020 season Tuesday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Knee woes have wiped out both of the last two seasons for McKinnon, so it's no surprise the 49ers sought to decrease his $6.5 million base salary for 2020. Fortunately for McKinnon, he was deemed healthy by GM John Lynch in late February, so he'll have a chance to work his way up a cluttered RB depth chart. McKinnon joins Raheem Mostert and Tevin Coleman as incumbents for the upcoming campaign, while Matt Breida is a restricted free agent.

  • Deemed healthy

    General manager John Lynch said McKinnon (knee) is now healthy and could stay with the 49ers if the two sides reach an agreement on a reworked contract, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Scheduled for a $6.5 million base salary in the third season of a four-year, $30 million contract, McKinnon presumably needs to accept a huge pay cut to have any shot at sticking around in San Francisco.
