49ers Beat: RB Raheem Mostert looked good despite loss

Oct 12, 2020

Only a few players came out of this game looking good. One of them was Raheem Mostert, who returned from a sprained knee looking like the same runner he was before the injury. Aside from his 37-yard run in the second quarter, Mostert didn’t have a lot of open lanes. More than half of his 90 yards came after initial contact. Mostert has excellent speed and finesse on the outside runs. On Sunday, he also showed impressive grit in tight spaces. That’s the kind of spirit the 49ers will need to salvage this season.

Fantasy Impact:

McKinnon had been the top tailback during Mostert’s absence but had only one run Sunday, the early fourth-and-1 play that was stuffed for no gain. Jeff Wilson ran four times while McKinnon caught two passes for just five yards.

Cowboys list TE Jake Ferguson as out for Sunday’s game vs. Washington due to his concussion.

Related Players: Luke Schoonmaker

Fantasy Impact:

This puts Schoonmaker more or less in TE streaming consideration, but there are far better options this week, which puts him low on the totem pole.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith officially Out for Week 12

Eagles ruled out WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) for Sunday against the Rams.

Related Players: A.J. Brown, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson, Dallas Goedert

Fantasy Impact:

It's a bit of a crapshoot as to who the "WR2" on the offense will be, but now that he's ruled out, Brown and Goedert should get a nice boost to their bottom line. That would lock Goedert into a no-doubt TE1 role in Week 12.
