Fri, 31 May 2013 16:29:41 -0700 San Francisco 49ers RB Kendall Hunter (Achilles') will be eight months removed from a torn left Achilles' tendon reconstruction when the team opens training camp July 24. He says he can do everything the coaching staff asks of him. Hunter has been cutting during organized team activities. Fantasy Tip: Hunter will vie with RB LaMichael James for touches behind starter Frank Gore. Hunter is a somewhat risky RB5 or a handcuff to Gore if you miss out on James.
Wed, 15 May 2013 11:17:03 -0700 San Francisco 49ers general manager Trent Baalke said he believes in using multiple running backs that can do different things on offense. "I'm a big believer -- we are big believers -- in a three-headed approach," Baalke said. "In other words, having a group of backs that bring to the table something a little bit different than the other one so you can do a lot of different things. But also having those backs be able to do enough things the same so you don't become so predictable on game day." RBs Frank Gore, Kendall Hunter and LaMichael James likely will see playing time this season. Fantasy Tip: All three running backs likely will receive playing time this season and could have fantasy value during the season. Gore likely will receive the majority of the carries and should be seen as a mid to weak No. 2 running back option. James and Hunter could be late-round fliers in drafts because of their expected roles on offense.
Fri, 29 Mar 2013 18:05:41 -0700 San Francisco 49ers RB Kendall Hunter (Achilles') is ahead of schedule in his recovery, and he has resumed running, according to a source close to the player. Hunter is expected to be ready for the start of training camp. Fantasy Tip: With Frank Gore still starting, and the emergence of LaMichael James late last season, as well as the presence of Anthony Dixon, Hunter will have his work cut out for him trying to carve out of the piece of the pie for himself in 2013.
Mon, 25 Feb 2013 14:40:26 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Kendall Hunter (Achilles'), WR Kyle Williams (knee) and DE Justin Smith (triceps) are expected to be ready for the start of training camp.

Tue, 27 Nov 2012 19:21:06 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB LaMichael James might finally get his chance to shine as the change of pace back behind RB Frank Gore following the season-ending injury to RB Kendall Hunter (ankle). Teammate FS Donte Whitner likes what he has seen from James on the practice squad. "He's a guy similar to (New Orleans Saints RB Darren Sproles). He can carry the ball up inside. I know he's anxious to get out there and play," Whitner said Tuesday, Nov. 27.

The Niners have not announced a timetable for Hunter, however. RBs LaMichael James and Brandon Jacobs will be asked to increase their roles as a result. James has yet to be active for a game this year.

Tue, 10 Jul 2012 21:54:55 -0700 San Francisco 49ers WR Kyle Williams is expected to be the backup return man for the team behind WR Ted Ginn Jr. (knee). However, rookie RB LaMichael James is also expected to see some time on punts and kickoffs during training camp, and CB Perrish Cox saw time on kickoff returns during offseason workouts. RB Kendall Hunter and CB Chris Culliver also might get a look on kickoff returns.
Tue, 08 May 2012 14:16:38 -0700 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore feels he has plenty left in the tank despite the team's plans to ease his workload in coming years. RBs Brandon Jacobs, Kendall Hunter, Anthony Dixon, Rock Cartwright and LaMichael James are all on roster and will threaten Gore's playing time. "I feel like I still got a lot left in my tank," Gore said. "I want to show it off that I still got a lot left in my tank and I can play at a high level. I will play at a high level as long as God blesses me to be healthy so I can go out and do something that I love."

Fri, 27 Apr 2012 21:07:06 -0700 San Francisco 49ers rookie RB LaMichael James said he is willing to do anything he can to get on the field during his first season. He returned 64 kickoffs and 14 punts in his college career, so his experience as a returner could help him. "I can do anything they ask of me as far as running the ball. I can even run down on kickoffs. Block field goals. Whatever the team needs me to do as to win ballgames, that's what I'm going to do," James said.
Wed, 28 Mar 2012 12:33:01 -0700 San Francisco 49ers RB Brandon Jacobs could share the team's backup role at running back with RB Kendall Hunter.
Thu, 23 Feb 2012 21:34:07 -0800 San Francisco 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh said Thursday, Feb. 23, that RB Kendall Hunter is likely to see a bigger role going forward. "You saw a lot of Kendall Hunter last year. Don't think there would be any reason not to. He did a fabulous job for us in two phases - offensive and in the area of special teams," Harbaugh said. "And he just works so darn hard at it. And he likes football so much and he's willing to spend extra classroom time."
Sun, 20 Nov 2011 18:28:28 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Kendall Hunter had 11 carries for 27 yards in Week 11 against the Arizona Cardinals, and RB Anthony Dixon added 32 yards on seven runs. Davis also managed a 15-yard reception.
Tue, 15 Nov 2011 12:35:51 -0800 San Francisco 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh gave the indication that he may not push RB Frank Gore (knee) in Week 11 with RBs Kendall Hunter and Anthony Dixon more than capable of carrying the load. "I would plan on (Gore) playing, but you just feel like right now that we've got a stable of backs," Harbaugh said. "We've got Frank Gore. We've got Kendall Hunter. We've got fresh legs in Anthony Dixon. This bodes really well for our football team." The team has a short week in Week 12 against the Baltimore Ravens, which may be even more reason to rest Gore.
Sun, 13 Nov 2011 18:32:40 -0800 San Francisco 49ers RB Kendall Hunter carried six times for 40 yards with a touchdown in Week 10 against the New York Giants. He also added a 4-yard reception. Hunter saw an increased workload in the second half with RB Frank Gore (knee) sidelined.

Sun, 02 Oct 2011 08:38:43 -0700 San Francisco 49ers RB Frank Gore (ankle) is expected to play in Week 4, but RB Kendall Hunter will start. Fantasy Tip: They play the Philadelphia Eagles, who've been weak against the run so far this year.
