Every Friday at 3 p.m. ET, Steve Buchanan and Meghan Townsley chop up the latest injury news on Injury Report Live! Check out what they think about the latest injuries to Deebo Samuel (wrist) and Jordan Mason (shoulder).
Despite playing without Christian McCaffrey (achilles) all season, the 49ers have managed to claw their way back to the top of the NFC West. Unfortunately, the injuries haven’t stopped there. Limited practices for star wideout Deebo Samuel ($7,000) and CMC replacement Jordan Mason ($7,600) have cast a shadow over this week’s Super Bowl rematch with the Chiefs. Right now, it’s anyones guess as to what the San Francisco offense will look like this Sunday.
How will the 49ers operate if either Samuel or Mason can’t play? Meghan (@mtownsleyy) and Steve (@SBuchanan24) told fantasy managers what to expect during Friday’s edition of Injury Report Live:
- Brandon Aiyuk’s ($6,300) inconsistency has been infuriating this season. Even without Samuel, a matchup against a Chiefs team that stifles opposing receivers doesn’t bode well for a bounce-back.
- If you’re going to play any 49er, Steve thinks it should be George Kittle ($6,000).
See their full analysis here:
- Meghan also loves Kittle. He’s caught ten of his eleven red zone targets for five touchdowns this season.
- In fact, Week 7 could be huge for tight ends in general. If you aren’t interested in Kittle’s price tag, consider Brock Bowers ($5,800) and Trey McBride ($5,700).
