Jauan Jennings Sees Career-High Nine Targets

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings was targeted a career- and team-high nine times in Monday night's 22-17 loss to the Vikings in Minnesota.

Brandon Aiyuk Catches Five Passes In Loss

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk hauled in five of six targets for 57 yards in the team's 22-17 loss to the Vikings in Minnesota on Monday night.

Christian McCaffrey Breaks NFL Record Monday Night

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey set the NFL record for the most consecutive games with a touchdown, including playoffs, at 16 in the team's 22-17 loss to the Vikings in Minnesota on Monday. McCaffrey, who had fantasy managers sweating for most of the week due to uncertainty concerning an oblique injury, didn't show […]

Brock Purdy Falls Short In Fourth Quarter

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy lost his second consecutive start on Monday night in Minneapolis against the Vikings. Purdy, who had a long unbeaten streak snapped last week in Cleveland, threw a game-ending interception in the final minute while trying to get his team in position to take the lead with a touchdown. He […]

San Francisco 49ers D/ST A Good Play In Minnesota

The San Francisco 49ers D/ST will be a top option when they face a decent Minnesota Vikings offense in Minneapolis in Week 7. The Vikings come into Monday night's game as the 12th-ranked offense in the NFL, averaging 332.6 yards per game. However, their offense lacks its usual firepower without superstar wideout Justin Jefferson, who […]

Jake Moody A Solid Option In Minnesota

San Francisco 49ers rookie kicker Jake Moody has a good chance to deliver for fantasy managers when the team goes to Minnesota to face the Vikings on Monday night. The 23-year-old had his first career field goal miss last week in Cleveland followed shortly by his second career miss, which would have been a game-winner. […]

George Kittle Looks To Bounce Back In Week 7

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle will try to put Week 6 behind him when the team goes to Minnesota to play the Vikings on Monday night.

Jauan Jennings Possible Deep-League Play

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings could see some involvement in the team's passing game when they go to Minnesota to take on the Vikings on Monday night. With starting wide receiver Deebo Samuel (shoulder) ruled out this week, Jennings could see more work than usual but expectations should be tempered. Last week with […]

Brandon Aiyuk A Great Choice In Week 7

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk will take on a beatable Vikings pass defense in Minnesota on Monday night. Aiyuk, 25, has been ascending fantasy rankings in the early season and presents us this week with one of his juiciest situations of the year. Not only has Minnesota allowed the sixth-most wide receiver fantasy […]

Jordan Mason Risky In Week 7

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan Mason will ride with uncertainty to Minnesota where his team will face the Vikings on Monday night. Mason was a popular waiver target this week as fantasy managers jostled to take advantage of the Christian McCaffrey oblique injury that has kept him questionable all week. That waiver arrow may […]

Elijah Mitchell Uncertainty Looms In Week 7

San Francisco 49ers running back Elijah Mitchell comes into Monday's matchup at the Minnesota Vikings with questions regarding his fantasy outlook, mostly because starting running back Christian McCaffrey (oblique) remains questionable. If McCaffrey doesn't play, it would vault Mitchell to RB2 status. The problem is that most fantasy managers won't have the luxury of waiting […]

Brock Purdy Looks To Rebound In Minnesota

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy will be leaving behind the worst game of his career when his team goes to Minnesota to take on the Vikings on Monday. Last week in Cleveland, he was 12 of 27 for 125 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. Purdy will be without Deebo Samuel for at least […]

George Kittle Quiet In Loss

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle came back to earth in a big way during the team's 19-17 loss to the Browns in Cleveland on Sunday.

Brandon Aiyuk Fails To Capitalize On Large Target Share

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk had a serviceable fantasy day but left some meat on the bone in Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Browns in Cleveland. He was targeted a team-leading 10 times for just four catches and 76 yards receiving. While Aiyuk managers have to be happy with the volume, a more […]

Jordan Mason Scores Touchdown As Injury Replacement

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan Mason generated some fantasy production on Sunday in a 19-17 loss at the Cleveland Browns. Starter Christian McCaffrey (oblique) left the game in the third quarter, leaving Mason and Elijah Mitchell to take over backfield duties. Mason finished the game with five carries for 27 yards, including a crucial […]

Brock Purdy Has Career-Worst Game

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy struggled Sunday against a talented, energized Browns defense in Cleveland. Among career games he has started and finished, Sunday was his first loss.

George Kittle Looks To Maintain Momentum

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle will try to keep the good times rolling when the team heads to Cleveland to face the Browns on Sunday. Kittle played a large role in the 42-10 evisceration of the Dallas Cowboys last week, scoring his first three touchdowns of the season. While fantasy managers were ecstatic […]

Deebo Samuel Hard To Trust Versus Cleveland

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel will face a solid Browns passing defense on Sunday in Cleveland.

Jordan Mason Not A Good Option In Week 6

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan Mason will make the trip to Cleveland with the team to take on the Browns on Sunday. Last week in the absence of regular backup Elijah Mitchell (knee), Mason had 10 carries for 69 yards and a touchdown versus Dallas. He failed to catch his only target. Mason surprisingly […]

Christian McCaffrey Remains Top Option In Tough Matchup

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey will travel to Cleveland to take on a solid Browns run defense in Week 6. Last week, McCaffrey handled 19 carries for 51 yards rushing and a touchdown while catching two of three targets for 27 yards receiving. The touchdown continued his franchise record-breaking streak, now having scored […]

Brock Purdy A Borderline Starter In Week 6

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy faces a tough test this week when the team travels to Cleveland to take on the Browns' top-ranked pass defense.

Deebo Samuel Efficient With Few Touches

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel spent another game outside the focal point of the offense but did enough to positively contribute to fantasy lineups on Sunday night. In the 49ers 42-10 blowout of the Dallas Cowboys, Samuel caught all three of his targets for 55 yards and carried the ball five times for […]

Brandon Aiyuk Leads Team In Targets Against Dallas

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk was quarterback Brock Purdy's favorite target in the team's 42-10 win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.

Christian McCaffrey Extends Touchdown Streak

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey continued his historic run of fantasy reliability on Sunday night in the team's 42-10 win over the Dallas Cowboys. He finished the game with 19 carries for 51 yards and a touchdown on the ground to go with two receptions on three targets for 27 yards receiving. McCaffrey […]

Brock Purdy Adds Another Chapter To Strong Start

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy engineered an unlikely beatdown of the fearsome Dallas Cowboys' defense on Sunday night in Santa Clara. The second-year pro out of Iowa State completed 17-of-24 pass attempts for 252 yards and four touchdowns in the 42-10 victory. Purdy also avoided throwing an interception which keeps him at zero total […]

San Francisco 49ers D/ST A Fade Against Dallas

The San Francisco 49ers D/ST unit will square off against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night in Santa Clara.

Jake Moody A Risky Play In Week 5

San Francisco 49ers kicker Jake Moody has started his career so far with a perfect body of work, hitting all nine field goal attempts and all 15 extra point tries.
