BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 17% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Wilson was included in the weekly recommendations when he was expected to return from injured reserve in late October. The timetable for him to resurface has shifted to late November, but that does not preclude you from stashing him if you are participating in a deeper league. Wilson will still reemerge as you are contending with bye weeks, and other roster challenges and he should commandeer a role within San Francisco’s backfield rotation when that occurs.
Elijah Mitchell has performed effectively as the 49ers’ lead rusher, but he is not being deployed as a pass-catcher (4 targets). Kyle Shanahan has also jettisoned Trey Sermon to a region outside the fantasy landscape. However, Shanahan has already demonstrated his confidence in Wilson, who led the 49ers in carries (126/11.5 per game), rushing yardage (600/55 per game), and rushing touchdowns (7) during 2020.
Wilson also generated 437 rushing yards (72.8 per game) from Weeks 12-17 which placed him eighth overall during that sequence. Shanahan should infuse Wilson into the backfield equation upon his return, and he could become a valuable resource for your rosters before the onset of your fantasy postseason.
