49ers cut RB JaMycal Hasty

49ers are waiving RB JaMycal Hasty, per source.

Fantasy Impact:

Hasty last year served as the team's primary third-down back. It speaks volumes for how good of camps backs like Davis-Price and even Sermon have had. Reports are saying Sermon could even be the team's RB2 behind Mitchell.

John Lynch is quoted in the article, "He worked really hard, and he’s had a tremendous offseason. It hasn’t shown up in the games...”

Related Players: Jeff Wilson, Tyrion Davis-Price

Fantasy Impact:

There were rumors that the team may be trying to feature him for a possible trade, but he has produced 39 yards on 19 carries so far through two preseason games, a streak of performances that are unlikely to catch another team's eye. As it stands, Tyrion Davis-Price seems like the candidate to work as Elijah Mitchell's main backup by season's end.

49ers RB Elijah Mitchell on track to return by Week 1

Head coach Kyle Shanahan seems confident that Mitchell —who had a litany of ailments throughout his rookie season— will be in line to serve as the RB1 when the season kicks off.

Related Players: Jeff Wilson, Trey Sermon, Tyrion Davis-Price

Fantasy Impact:

Elijah Mitchell missed five games in 2021 due to shoulder, ribs, finger, knee, and concussion issues but continually returned to the lineup to lead the team in backfield touches, finishing the year as the RB12 in half-PPR points per game. As with any team's RB1, we can assume that Mitchell will miss a couple of games throughout the grueling season, but his role in this often-explosive offense is one to take a gamble on in the 6th-or-7th round.

Rookie Davis-Price has time to work his way into that number two slot, but he has some work to do to create separation behind starter Elijah Mitchell.

Related Players: Tyrion Davis-Price, Trey Sermon

Fantasy Impact:

The article goes on to say, "the 225-pounder (Davis-Price) has managed to look like a violent runner even in non-padded practices, and the 49ers are eager to see whether that plays out in the...offseason." Jeff Wilson has shown flashes of production with the San Francisco offense in the past but has had a long history with injuries. If Davis-Price can't wrest the RB2 slot away before Week 1, I would expect the switch to come soon after.
