In a season the place accidents have been rampant, fantasy managers noticed one other prime participant go down on Thursday evening. This time, 49ers operating again Jordan Mason suffered a shoulder damage within the second quarter of a win over the Seahawks. He tried to return within the third quarter, however he had only one dashing try earlier than heading again to the sidelines.

Mason didn’t return to the competition.

49ers coach Kyle Shanahan didn’t provide any details about Mason after the sport, however recommended extra info will come out of his standing on Friday.

“I do not know, you by no means know,” Shanahan mentioned. “I imply, adrenaline on nowadays throughout video games is slightly bit totally different. We’ll discover out extra tomorrow.”

Mason entered final evening’s sport as one of many prime operating backs in fantasy soccer and an absolute present from the fantasy gods. In spite of everything, he changed the perfect operating again in fantasy soccer, Chrisitan McCaffrey, who hasn’t performed a single snap this season as a consequence of Achilles points, and carried out amazingly.

The 49ers have a bye in Week 9, so it’s doable Mason might miss the subsequent two weeks and return in Week 10. However right here’s the issue … reviews counsel McCaffrey might be again after the bye, too. Actually, SI NFL Insider Albert Breer advised Charissa Thompson earlier than Thursday’s sport that McCaffrey has, “simply began feeling like himself once more final week,” and that the 49ers will begin to ramp him up “over the previous couple of days.”
