News

  • Likely out until late November

    The 49ers aren't expecting Wilson (knee) to return from the PUP list until late November, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Back on Sept. 15, David Lombardi of The Athletic relayed that the 49ers were hoping Wilson would be back around mid-season, which falls in late October/early November. Barrows' latest report would seem to suggest that Wilson isn't progressing in his recovery from meniscus surgery quite as fast as the team initially anticipated, as a Week 11 game in Jacksonville on Nov. 21 now looks like the earliest potential date for the running back to make his 2021 debut. Wilson's continued absence should…read more

  • On track for midseason return

    Wilson (knee) recently resumed running and is still expected to return from the PUP list around midseason, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: All eyes are on the San Francisco backfield after a wild Week 1 in which rookie third-round selection Trey Sermon was a healthy scratch and Raheem Mostert suffered a season-ending knee injury. Wilson may eventually help, but his presence on the PUP list means he can't play until Week 7 even if his rehab process speeds up. He had surgery in late May to repair a meniscus tear, with the recovery timeline set at 4-to-6 months.

  • Heads to reserve/PUP list

    Wilson (knee) was placed on the reserve/PUP list Tuesday by the 49ers, Chris Biderman of The Sacramento Bee reports.

    Analysis: With Wilson set to miss at least the first six weeks of the season after undergoing surgery on a torn meniscus in late May, this move more or less was expected. Meanwhile, the 49ers opted to cut Wayne Gallman after the preseason. Raheem Mostert and Trey Sermon are slated to head the backfield, with JaMycal Hasty and Elijah Mitchell on hand for any reps that remain.

  • Placed on PUP

    Wilson (knee) is on the PUP list to start training camp, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Analysis: Most players on preseason PUP lists will be removed before the regular season, but that won't necessarily be the case with Wilson, who had surgery in late May to repair a torn meniscus. The rehab timeline was estimated at four-to-six months, with one report suggesting Wilson likely would stay on the PUP list for the beginning of the regular season, ruling him out for the first six games. He can still avoid that fate if his rehab trends toward the front end of the timeline, but Wilson isn't…read more

  • Expected to miss first six weeks

    Wilson (knee) is expected to miss at least the first six weeks of the season, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Wilson was already expected to be sidelined for 4-to-6 months following surgery to repair a torn meniscus at the end of May, but this specific timeline report from Barrows indicates that the running back will be placed on the reserve/PUP list once training camp begins. Raheem Mostert is expected to lead the backfield attack in 2021, with Trey Sermon, Wayne Gallman and Elijah Mitchell (possibly in that order) jockeying for position during camp.

  • Out 4-6 months after knee surgery

    Wilson recently underwent knee surgery to repair a torn meniscus and is expected to be sidelined 4-to-6 months, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: It's a tough break for the the 25-year-old, who will now be sidelined for the start of the season and could be out into November if he returns on the long end of the initial timeline. Raheem Mostert is poised to open the season atop the depth chart, while rookies Trey Sermon and Elijah Mitchell and veteran Wayne Gallman will provide some much-needed depth in Wilson's absence.

  • Re-ups in San Francisco

    Wilson signed a one-year contract with the 49ers on Tuesday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Wilson topped 100 yards twice during the 2021 season, including a 183-yard effort against the Cardinals in Week 16. He finished with 126 carries for 600 yards (4.8 YPC) and seven touchdowns, adding 12 receptions (28 targets) for 133 yards and three scores. Raheem Mostert is under contract for next season as well, so Wilson is slated to operate as the 1B back once again, barring any offseason additions. The 49ers' offensive dynamic could change next year if Jimmy Garoppolo is cut or traded, but…read more

  • Finishes with 10 TDs in 2020

    Wilson received 23 touches for 88 combined yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's season finale, giving the back 733 combined yards from scrimmage and 10 total touchdowns in 12 games this season.

    Analysis: Wilson narrowly made San Francisco's 53-man roster this season as the fourth running back on the depth chart, but he finished the year as the team's workhorse and potentially its best (and healthiest) option going into the 2021 campaign. The third-year man spent time sharing the workload with all three of the team's other veteran options at various parts of the season, but Wilson regularly saw the important fantasy touches around the goal line and in most passing situations. Head coach Kyle…read more

  • Tops 200 total yards

    Wilson carried the ball 22 times for 183 yards in Week 16 against the Cardinals. He added one reception for 21 yards and a touchdown.

    Analysis: Wilson worked as the clear lead back for the 49ers, accounting for 22 of the team's 30 rushing attempts. He tallied the team's first touchdown, hauling in a pass over the middle of the field before beating a number of defenders on a 21-yard dash to the end zone. Wilson also added plenty of production on the ground, including explosive gains of 34, 25 and 23 yards. With Raheem Mostert (ankle) ruled out for the remainder of the season, Wilson should be in line to handle the majority of carries in…read more

  • Clear of injury report

    Wilson (ankle) isn't listed on Tuesday's injury report.

    Analysis: The 25-year-old sustained an ankle injury during Sunday's loss to the Cowboys, but his absence from the injury report indicates it was minor. Wilson should operate as San Francisco's No. 1 tailback the final two weeks of the season with Raheem Mostert (ankle) back on injured reserve.

  • Injures ankle Sunday

    Wilson suffered an ankle injury during Sunday's 41-33 loss at Dallas, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Wilson didn't get much run until Raheem Mostert departed in the third quarter after appearing to aggravate a left ankle injury. Overall, Mostert totaled 14 carries for 68 yards while Wilson notched 60 yards and one touchdown on 16 runs. With the 49ers' current top two running backs dealing with health concerns, Tevin Coleman (three rushes for 11 yards) and Jerick McKinnon (two catches for 22 yards on two targets) are the team's remaining health options at the position.

  • Cashes in on goal line

    Wilson rushed 11 times for 31 yards and a touchdown Sunday, adding 13 more yards on one reception (three targets) in a 23-15 loss to Washington.

    Analysis: Starter Raheem Mostert out-touched Wilson, 16-12, but the latter was given the opportunity to punch the ball into the end zone from one yard out in the first quarter. The 25-year-old Wilson did, however, have an ugly drop late in the contest that would have extended a comeback drive, but the trip to the end zone salvaged what would have been a disappointing game. Even though Wilson technically is the backup in this offense, he brings added fantasy value as the preferred goal-line back along…read more

  • Continues to split time

    Wilson rushed seven times for 47 yards and caught two passes (five targets) for 12 yards in Monday's 34-24 loss to Buffalo.

    Analysis: Wilson continued to split the backfield workload with Raheem Mostert, logging 28 snaps (46 percent) to the latter's 27 (44 percent). Both backs took big chunks out of the opposition's defense, but neither reached double-digit carries after the 49ers fell behind by multiple scores in the second half. It appears that this is the one-two punch head coach Kyle Shanahan will roll with moving forward, as Tevin Coleman (four snaps) and Jerick McKinnon (two snaps) were both healthy for the contest, but…read more

  • Handles 12 carries in return

    Wilson carried 12 times for 43 yards and lost a fumble during Sunday's 23-20 win over the Rams.

    Analysis: Making his first appearance in over a month after recovering from an ankle injury, Wilson finished four behind Raheem Mostert for the team lead in carries. He averaged just 3.6 yards per carry after averaging 6.6 over his previous two outings, and his fumble toward the end of the first quarter squandered excellent field position for his team. Wilson's usage with both Mostert and Jerick McKinnon available was a positive sign, but his playing time could diminish if Tevin Coleman (knee) returns…read more

  • Returns Week 12

    Wilson (ankle) is listed as active Sunday versus the Rams.

    Analysis: Making his first appearance since Oct. 25 at New England, Wilson may factor into the 49ers backfield with Tevin Coleman (knee) unavailable. That said, Raheem Mostert also was activated from IR on Saturday, so Wilson could play second or even third fiddle with Jerick McKinnon on hand.

  • Lifted from IR

    Wilson (ankle) was activated from injured reserve Saturday and is questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Raheem Mostert (ankle) was also activated and handed a questionable designation for Week 12. Meanwhile, Tevin Coleman (knee) has been ruled out. Jerick McKinnon is the only fully healthy, experienced running back heading into Sunday's game. It's a fool's errand to project how the backfield reps will be divvied up, but Wilson may be the odd man out if Mostert is at 100 percent.

  • May return Week 12

    Wilson (ankle) is slated to be activated from IR prior to Sunday's road game versus the Rams, as coach Kyle Shanahan considers the running back questionable to suit up, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: With Tevin Coleman (knee) ruled out for Week 12, the 49ers are calling in reinforcements in the form of Raheem Mostert (ankle) and Wilson. Both running backs are coming off multi-week recoveries, and Wilson himself hasn't suited up since Week 7. If Wilson is active Sunday, he may have to contend with Mostert for touches, though Jerick McKinnon could lead the backfield as the only consistently healthy San Francisco running back this season.

  • Deemed day-to-day

    Coach Kyle Shanahan said Wednesday that Wilson (ankle) is considered day-to-day, Chris Biderman of The Sacramento Bee reports.

    Analysis: Wilson suffered a sprained ankle in Week 7 against the Patriots and sat out three games as a result. The 25-year-old running back was designated to return from injured reserve Tuesday, opening a 21-day window for him to rejoin the roster. Depending on how his ankle responds to a week of practice, Wilson could play in this Sunday's game against the Rams. His role depends on the health of the other backs, as Tevin Coleman (knee), Jerick McKinnon (neck) and Raheem Mostert (knee) are all banged up…read more

  • Cleared for practice

    The 49ers designated Wilson (ankle) to return from injured reserve Tuesday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Analysis: San Francisco has 21 days to evaluate Wilson for a return to the 53-man roster. Before being moved to IR due to a sprained ankle, Wilson turned in his best game as a pro in the 49ers' Week 7 win over New England, rumbling 17 times for 112 yards and three scores while catching two passes for eight yards. Even if he proves healthy in practice, Wilson may have a tough time reclaiming a consistent role in the backfield, as top option Raheem Mostert (ankle) was also designated to return from IR on…read more

  • Moved to IR

    Wilson (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: This comes as no surprise considering the 49ers indicated Wilson would be placed on injured reserve earlier in the week. It's a tough bit of luck for the third-year pro after easily the best game of his career, but the return of Tevin Coleman (knee) and improving health of Jerick McKinnon likely spelled a decreased role for Wilson anyhow. Wilson will stay on injured reserve a minimum of three weeks; just long enough for Raheem Mostert (ankle) to also be eligible to return.

  • IR move expected

    Wilson (ankle) is expected to land on the 49ers' injured reserve later this week, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: This news come straight from coach Kyle Shanahan. Wilson was excelling in his opportunity as the team's primary back prior to suffering a high-ankle sprain during Sunday's win at New England, accumulating 112 yards and three touchdowns on the ground before exiting. The expected move to IR means he'll join fellow running backs Raheem Mostert (ankle) and Tevin Coleman (knee) on IR, though Coleman could be activated from the list this week. Nonetheless, Jerick McKinnon and JaMycal Hasty are the…read more

  • Dealing with high-ankle sprain

    The injury Wilson suffered in Sunday's win over the Patriots is believed to be a high-ankle sprain, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Wilson rumbled for over 100 yards and three touchdowns before his injury. The typical recovery timeline for high-ankle sprains is 4-6 weeks, so there's a good chance Wilson will have to join fellow 49ers running backs Raheem Mostert (ankle) and Tevin Coleman (knee) on IR. If that turns out to be the case, JaMycal Hasty should take on an increased role alongside Jerick McKinnon in the run-heavy 49ers offense.

  • Ruled out of Sunday's contest

    Wilson (ankle) won't return to Sunday's game at New England, Dan Graziano of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: On his third TD of the day, Wilson was tackled awkwardly, had difficulty getting to his feet and eventually needed a cart to get to the locker room. He was the 49ers' clear lead running back, turning 17 carries into 112 yards and two catches (on two targets) into eight yards. If he eventually requires time on the sideline, Wilson will join Raheem Mostert (knee) and Tevin Coleman (knee) as the team's injured running backs. After that trio, San Francisco is left with Jerick McKinnon and JaMycal…read more

  • Available Week 7

    Wilson (calf) is active for Sunday's game in New England.

    Analysis: With Raheem Mostert and Tevin Coleman on IR due to knee injuries, Wilson is part of a backfield rotation along with Jerick McKinnon and JaMycal Hasty. Wilson's workload has been all over the place this season, ranging from no touches Week 1 to 15 in Week 3. Overall, though, he's averaged 6.3 touches for 29.5 yards from scrimmage per game to go with two touchdowns in the four games this season in which he's received snaps on offense.

    Analysis: The 24-year-old received the questionable tag after practicing as a limited participant all week, but he's expected to be available for Sunday's contest in New England. Wilson should see some backfield work with Jerick McKinnon and JaMycal Hasty, as Raheem Mostert (ankle) moved to injured reserve.

  • Questionable to face Pats

    Wilson (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at New England, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: A limited practice participant throughout the week, Mostert appears truly questionable. Meanwhile, Raheem Mostert (knee) is expected to go on injured reserve, leaving Jerick McKinnon and JaMycal Hasty as the healthy options at running back. Wilson could also join the mix, but we may not know for sure until the 49ers release their inactive list approximately 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. In any case, Wilson likely handle a backup role if he's active.

  • Another limited practice

    Wilson (calf) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Before he was deemed inactive this past Sunday against the Rams, Wilson didn't practice Thursday or Friday due to his calf issue. He's been able to get in some reps in both sessions so far this week, with one remaining before the 49ers likely will give him a designation for Sunday's game at New England. If he's active, he'll join Jerick McKinnon and JaMycal Hasty in a backfield without Raheem Mostert (ankle) and Tevin Coleman (knee).

    Wilson (calf) was limited at Wednesday's practice, Keiana Martin of the 49ers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Currently, the 49ers are without Tevin Coleman (knee) and Raheem Mostert (ankle), so Wilson would be in line for work Week 7 if he can get past his own calf injury. If he does, Wilson will join Jerick McKinnon and JaMycal Hasty as backfield options for San Francisco on Sunday at New England.

    Coach Kyle Shanahan hopes Wilson (calf) can return to practice Wednesday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: With Tevin Coleman (knee) unlikely to be activated from IR this week and Raheem Mostert about to join him due to a high left ankle sprain, Wilson would be in line for more touches when he can get past the calf injury that kept him in street clothes Sunday versus the Rams. If he participates in Wednesday's session, it'll mark Wilson's first non-DNP since last Wednesday's injury report. Elsewhere in the 49ers backfield, Jerick McKinnon and JaMycal Hasty are the only healthy bodies.

    Analysis: The 49ers held Wilson out of practice Thursday and Friday with a calf injury, which will keep him on the sideline for this NFC West matchup. With Wilson out, Raheem Mostert will lead the backfield while Jerick McKinnon and JaMycal Hasty fill in when necessary.

    Wilson (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Rams, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Wilson didn't open the week on the practice report, only showing up Thursday as a non-participant due to a calf injury. Due to the 49ers not kicking off until 8:20 p.m. ET on Sunday, considering Wilson in lineups is a difficult prospect if his status comes down to the wire. If Wilson is unable to suit up, Raheem Mostert, Jerick McKinnon and JaMycal Hasty will compose San Francisco's backfield.

  • Dealing with calf injury

    Wilson didn't practice Thursday due to a calf injury.

    Analysis: Wilson was clear of the 49ers' injury report Wednesday, so this issue may have occurred in practice. How the team lists him Friday will provide a sense of his ability to play Sunday versus the Rams, but an absence Week 6 would leave the backfield in the hands of Raheem Mostert, Jerick McKinnon and JaMycal Hasty.

    Wilson was on the field for 23 percent of the offensive snaps Sunday, finishing with four carries for 27 yards in a 43-17 loss to Miami.

    Analysis: Raheem Mostert (knee) returned from injury and commanded most of the backfield playing time and production. It appears that Wilson will still be used in short-yardage situations, but there isn't much fantasy value there when Mostert and Jerick McKinnon are both healthy.

    Wilson registered six rushing yards on three carries, adding a 13-yard reception on his lone target during Sunday night's 25-20 loss to the Eagles.

    Analysis: Wilson enjoyed a solid receiving day with three catches and 54 yards against the Giants in Week 3, but his performance in that game was boosted significantly by a pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns. He otherwise struggled mightily on the ground, registering just 15 yards on 12 attempts. Week 4 against the Eagles, Wilson was shut down on the ground again, now bringing his season-long yard-per-carry average to 1.4.

  • Makes good on Week 3 opportunity

    Wilson rushed 12 times for 15 yards and a touchdown and brought in all three targets for 54 yards and another score in the 49ers' 36-9 win over the Giants on Sunday.

    Analysis: Wilson was slated to complement Jerick McKinnon with both Raheem Mostert and Tevin Coleman sidelined by knee sprains, and although the third-year back found running room at a premium, he still pounded his way into the end zone from two yards out with 3:35 remaining. Earlier in the fourth quarter, the versatile Wilson also logged a 19-yard scoring grab, making it a rewarding day for fantasy managers who plucked him off the wire this past week or took a shot on him as a DFS punt play.

  • Should get some touches

    With Raheem Mostert and Tevin Coleman both ruled out due to knee injuries, Wilson should have a role in the 49ers offense Sunday against the Giants, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Jerick McKinnon is expected to get the start and most likely the majority of targets, but it isn't quite clear how the carries will be divided, and Wilson does have some history of goal-line usage in Kyle Shanahan's offense. While McKinnon is the preferred fantasy option, Wilson does have some appeal for deeper formats.

  • Increased duties on tap?

    Wilson is expected to have an increased role Sunday versus the Giants since Raheem Mostert (knee) and Tevin Coleman (knee) are doubtful, Alex Shultz of SFGate.com reports.

    Analysis: Wilson and Jerick McKinnon will lead the 49ers' backfield in Week 3, and there's a chance practice squad RB JaMycal Hasty gets a few reps, too. Wilson has logged just two carries for three yards through two games, while McKinnon has showed more explosiveness with six rushes for 101 yards and a TD and three receptions for 20 yards and a score. It'll be tough to depend on Wilson in most formats, but he has sneaky TD potential.

  • Makes 53-man roster

    Wilson survived the 49ers' final roster cutdown over the weekend and will be one four runnings back on the team's 53-man unit heading into Sunday's season opener versus the Cardinals.

    Analysis: The top three remembers on the 49ers' running-back depth chart were already set in stone, so Wilson was primarily competing with undrafted rookie JaMycal Hasty for one roster spot. The former's inability to qualify for a traditional practice squad spot was likely enough to give him the edge over Hasty. Wilson should only be considered depth to begin the season, and he'll likely be one of the 49ers' healthy inactives Week 1.

  • Elevated from COVID list

    The 49ers removed Wilson (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Analysis: Wilson only spent a handful of days on the list, so it's more likely that he met the caveat of recent exposure to someone who tested positive for COVID-19 -- rather than test positive himself -- upon his arrival to camp. He'll now focus his efforts on retaining a roster spot in a backfield headed up by Raheem Mostert, Tevin Coleman and Jerick McKinnon.

  • Placed on COVID-19 list

    Wilson has been placed on the 49ers' reserve/COVID-19 list, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Analysis: Wilson's placement on the list means that he's either tested positive for COVID-19 or had close contact with an infected person. The 24-year-old is slated to work in a reserve role in the 49ers' backfield this season behind Raheem Mostert, Tevin Coleman and Jerick McKinnon.

  • Signs tender

    Wilson signed his exclusive-rights free agent tender Monday.

    Analysis: Wilson is set to earn $750,000 in 2020 before becoming a restricted free agent next offseason. Though he reached the end zone five times in 2019, Wilson averaged just 3.9 yards per carry and saw his role on offense dwindle down the stretch last season. From Week 14 onward, Wilson's only touch came in the Super Bowl loss to the Chiefs, when he recorded a 20-yard reception.

  • Tendered by 49ers

    San Francisco tendered Wilson to a one-year contract Thursday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Wilson was effective when called upon in a crowed 49ers backfield last season, producing 27 carries for 105 yards and four touchdowns while adding three receptions for 34 yards and another score in 10 games. Wilson faces a tough path for carries next season, especially considering there's three running backs ahead of him on the depth chart under contract.

  • Effective when called upon

    Wilson had 27 carries for 105 yards and four touchdowns, adding three receptions for 34 yards and another score in 10 games this season.

    Analysis: Wilson began the year on the 49ers' practice squad for the second season in a row, and he was quickly promoted to the main roster in Week 2 after Tevin Coleman suffered a multi-week injury. The 24-year-old was effective early on as a goal-line back, scoring all four of his touchdowns in the first two games following his promotion. Wilson saw his role reduced significantly as the backfield returned to full strength, and he should find himself in a similar situation to begin the 2020 season with…read more

  • Healthy scratch

    Wilson (coach's decision) is inactive for Saturday's matchup with the Vikings.

    Analysis: Wilson has been receiving healthy scratches since Week 14. It is no surprise he has again, as Raheem Mostert, Tevin Coleman and Matt Breida are all healthy and available in the backfield.

  • Performs when called upon

    Wilson suited up for 10 games and finished with 27 carries for 105 yards and four touchdowns, adding three receptions for 34 yards and another score during the regular season.

    Analysis: Wilson was signed off the practice squad for the second year in a row to fill in for injured backs, this time serving as a goal-line option early on. Improved backfield depth in 2019 led to less touches for the 23-year-old (78 to 30) despite appearing in four more contests. Wilson showed enough when he was called upon to be a solid backup in the NFL, so it wouldn't be surprising to see San Francisco offer him a minimum contract to keep the extended-rights free agent around for training camp in…read more

  • Remains healthy scratch

    Wilson (coach's decision) is inactive for Saturday's game against the Rams.

    Analysis: Wilson was active for Week 15 but didn't end up playing any offensive snaps. Raheem Mostert, Matt Breida and Tevin Coleman are all good to handle the backfield work for the 49ers on Saturday.

  • Healthy scratch in Week 14

    Wilson (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Saints, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: With Matt Breida (ankle) returning from a two-game absence, the 49ers are back to full strength in the backfield, which leaves no room on the 46-man gameday roster for Wilson as a fourth-string option at the position. Wilson made waves earlier this season with two-touchdown performances in both Weeks 2 and 3, but he's since found paydirt in just one of the seven games he's been active for while amassing only 87 total yards.

  • Rejoins game

    Wilson (illness) returned to Sunday's 37-8 win over Green Bay in the third quarter.

    Analysis: Wilson was deemed questionable to return after he exited the game due to an illness in the first half. He came back in the third quarter and took a carry for two yards, but he didn't see any work thereafter, with Tevin Coleman and Raheem Mostert holding down the fort in the backfield. Wilson finished the night with two carries for 27 yards and one target that he didn't catch.

  • Battling illness

    Wilson (illness) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Green Bay, MJ Acosta of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Wilson showed no signs of anything bothering him when he rushed for 25 yards on his lone touch of the game thus far, but he's apparently battling an illness that's serious enough to put his status for the remainder of the contest into question.

  • Scores on lone touch

    Wilson caught his lone target for a 25-yard touchdown in Sunday's 36-26 win over the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Wilson was limited to special teams duties for nearly the entire contest until he briefly saw the field for a screen pass that he took for 25 yards to seal the win for San Francisco. The 24-year-old was able to shed his healthy scratch status due to Matt Breida's ankle injury. If the latter is unable to heal up before next Sunday's contest against the Packers, then Wilson will suit up as depth and once again have the opportunity to vulture touchdowns away from the workhorses in the 49ers'…read more

  • Healthy scratch Monday

    Wilson (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's game versus the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Raheem Mostert continues to play through a knee injury, but roster restrictions elsewhere seem to have forced coach Kyle Shanahan's hand. With Wilson sidelined, the 49ers will ride Tevin Coleman and Matt Breida out of the backfield while Mostert mostly is contained to special teams.

  • Records first catch of 2019

    Wilson caught a two-yard pass during Thursday's 28-25 win over Arizona.

    Analysis: Wilson's target was just his second of the season after 15 targets in six games in 2018. Wilson has had some big games in his first two seasons in the league, including back-to-back two-score games in Weeks 2 and 3 when San Francisco's backfield was banged up. The sophomore back can produce in Kyle Shanahan's offense when given the opportunity, but at the moment there are too many other weapons available to give Wilson those opportunities. Next up is a Seattle defense surrendering 4.7 yards per…read more
