San Francisco 49ers news, rumors and injuries49ers | Torrey Smith a full participant Thu, 29 Sep 2016 20:01:51 -0700 San Francisco 49ers WR Torrey Smith (foot) was a full participant in practice Thursday, Sept. 29. Fantasy Tip: Smith has hauled in just eight of his 20 targets this year, and he hasn't been making big plays down the field. You should be able to find a better option at receiver.

Comment () | Share: 49ers | Torrey Smith practices in full Wed, 28 Sep 2016 17:09:29 -0700 San Francisco 49ers WR Torrey Smith (foot) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Sept. 28. Fantasy Tip: Smith should be able to play in Week 4 and probably will be a focal point in the passing game. Smith should have value in deeper leagues as a flex option, but he can probably be avoided in most leagues. Comment () | Share: 49ers | Vance McDonald does not practice Wed, 28 Sep 2016 17:07:15 -0700 San Francisco 49ers TE Vance McDonald (hip) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Sept. 28. Fantasy Tip: Owners will need to check on McDonald's status later in the week to see if he has a chance to play in Week 4. Garrett Celek may start if McDonald is ruled out, but he is not a strong fantasy option. Comment () | Share: 49ers | Torrey Smith should be fine Wed, 28 Sep 2016 11:36:15 -0700 San Francisco 49ers WR Torrey Smith (ankle) suffered an apparent ankle injury during the team's Week 3 game, but head coach Chip Kelly said Smith will be fine. Fantasy Tip: Smith is off to a decent start this season but has caught only eight passes on 20 targets. He should continue to be one of the top targets in the 49ers' passing game but probably should only be a flex option in most leagues. Comment () | Share: 49ers | Vance McDonald may miss time Wed, 28 Sep 2016 11:31:26 -0700 San Francisco 49ers TE Vance McDonald's (hip) status for Week 4 is uncertain because of a hip injury he suffered in Week 3. Head coach Chip Kelly said McDonald is not dealing with a long-term injury, but his status will not be known until later in the week. Fantasy Tip: Owners will need to keep an eye on the situation to see if McDonald will have to miss time because of the injury. McDonald has been off to a solid start this season, but owners should have other options ready in case he is ruled out.

Comment () | Share: 49ers | Jimmie Ward dealing with quad injury Tue, 27 Sep 2016 10:54:28 -0700 San Francisco 49ers S Jimmie Ward (quad) is week-to-week with a quad strain suffered in a Week 3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Comment () | Share: 49ers | Blaine Gabbert remains the starter Tue, 27 Sep 2016 06:39:58 -0700 San Francisco 49ers QB Blaine Gabbert will remain the starting quarterback, in part, because he's better in practice than QB Colin Kaepernick. Fantasy Tip: Gabbert has been atrocious as a starter for much of his career, and he warrants no fantasy value for now. Comment () | Share: 49ers | Anthony Davis retires again Mon, 26 Sep 2016 16:38:41 -0700 San Francisco 49ers OT Anthony Davis has informed the team that he has retired from professional football. Comment () | Share: 49ers | Colin Kaepernick could start soon Mon, 26 Sep 2016 12:16:15 -0700 San Francisco 49ers QB Colin Kaepernick (shoulder) may reclaim his starting job once he's back to full health, according to head coach Chip Kelly. "I don't think he's 100 percent right now, so that's why he's our No. 2," Kelly said. Fantasy Tip: Just like he did in the preseason, Blaine Gabbert hasn't exactly done anything to run away with the job and doesn't bring nearly the same level of athleticism to the table that a fully healthy Kaepernick does. While Kaepernick probably isn't going to be the long-term answer for Kelly either, his willingness to go deep may open things up for a running game that has generated a lot of production in garbage time. He'll be a low-end QB2 at best if/when he is named the starter. Comment () | Share:  |
