Barrows: The timing seems perfect for a sledgehammer like 49ers' Jordan Mason The big difference between Mason and fellow rookie Tyrion Davis-Price: One's excelled on special teams, which opened the door on offense.

DECEMBER 15, 2022 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Strong in backup role Mason rushed 11 times for 56 yards and was not targeted in Sunday's 35-7 win over the Buccaneers.

Impact Mason followed up last week's career high in rushing with another new high-water mark in yards. The undrafted rookie absorbed nearly all of Elijah Mitchell's (knee) carries over the last two weeks, providing some low-end fantasy value for those in deeper formats. Mason still is the clear No. 2 behind workhorse Christian McCaffrey, who went for 153 combined yards and two touchdowns Sunday. Expect the Georgia Tech product to see a similar workload in a soft matchup against the Seahawks on Thursday.

49ers Should Give Jordan Mason More Carries Than Christian McCaffrey It is time for the 49ers to take some of the carries away from Christian McCaffrey and give them to Jordan Mason.

DECEMBER 7, 2022 • CHARLOTTEOBSERVER.COM

Career game Sunday Mason rushed eight times for 51 yards in Sunday's 33-17 win over the Dolphins.

Impact Mason took on a larger offensive role sans Elijah Mitchell (knee) as expected, setting new career marks in carries and rushing yards. The Georgia Tech product looked sharp in limited action, putting his downhill running style on display. Christian McCaffrey still dominated the workload, producing 146 yards and a touchdown on 25 combined touches. CMC has a poor injury history and entered Sunday's contest with a balky knee, so Mason is worth stashing for fantasy managers with the luxury to do so. In his current role, the rookie tailback will find it hard to crack fantasy lineups against the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Could take over backup role Mason rushed five times for 25 yards in Sunday's 13-0 win over the Saints.

Impact Mason was used on the final drive of the game with the 49ers up multiple scores for the second week in a row. Unlike last week's garbage time appearance against the Cardinals, the undrafted rookie was actually needed after No. 2 back Elijah Mitchell (knee) went down late in this contest. Starter Christian McCaffrey was dealing with knee soreness as well, but the former's is expected to be more serious. It sounds like Mitchell will be forced to miss some time again, and CMC doesn't have the build to handle a 20-plus touch workload, so Mason could step into a prominent backup role in head coach Kyle Shanahan's run-heavy offensive scheme. If that were to be the case, the Georgia Tech product should absorb a chunk of Mitchell's carries in next Sunday's showdown against the Dolphins.

Gets four carries in garbage time Mason rushed four times for 14 yards in Sunday's 38-10 win over the Cardinals.

Impact Mason was able to finally get some offensive run in garbage time after serving exclusively on special teams this season. The carries and yardage both represented new highs for the undrafted rookie. Mason will resume seeing the majority of his snaps on special teams when the 49ers take on the Saints on Sunday.

NOVEMBER 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Serves special teams role Mason logged 19 snaps on special teams and was not used on offense in Sunday's 22-16 win over the Chargers.

Impact Mason returned to action after being deployed as a healthy scratch last game, effectively swapping spots on the depth chart with Tyrion Davis-Price (inactive). The 49ers welcomed back Elijah Mitchell (knee) to backup Christian McCaffrey this week, so the rookie wasn't asked to do more than serve on special teams. Mason carries no fantasy value heading into a Week 11 tilt against the Cardinals next Monday.

NOVEMBER 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Healthy scratch Mason (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Chiefs.

Impact Mason will sit for the first time this season after the team's acquisition of Christian McCaffrey. The undrafted rookie will likely need an injury to find himself on the active roster moving forward.

OCTOBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Usurped by veteran backup Mason logged 15 snaps on special teams and did not receive a touch in Sunday's 37-15 win over the Panthers.

Impact The 49ers signed an old friend, Tevin Coleman, to backup Jeff Wilson for the past two weeks, effectively pushing Mason further down the depth chart. It is still unclear what the team's plan for the undrafted rookie is, as they promoted him to the active roster over players with higher pedigree and more experience, only to give him one carry through five active games. Even with San Francisco's backfield decimated by injury, Mason remains a non-factor in his current role on special teams.

OCTOBER 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Not part of offense in win Mason failed to record a single rushing attempt in Monday's 24-9 win over the Rams.

Impact Mason did not play any offensive snaps Monday. Instead, the rookie running back saw the field for 17 snaps on special teams. Meanwhile, starter Jeff Wilson handled almost all of the team's work out of the backfield with 33 offensive snaps, ceding one carry to fellow veteran Tevin Coleman. It appeared Mason would have the opportunity to see increased involvement in the running game after injuries to both Elijah Mitchell (knee) and Tyrion Davis-Price (ankle), but that just hasn't come to fruition. The 23-year-old will look to make the most of any opportunities he may earn when the 49ers visit the Panthers in Week 5.

OCTOBER 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Gets one carry as backup Mason received one carry for seven yards in Sunday's 11-10 loss to Denver.

Impact Mason has served as the primary backup to starter Jeff Wilson (12 carries for 75 yards) with rookie Tyrion Davis-Price (ankle) set to miss several weeks of action. The undrafted rookie only saw five snaps on offense (nine percent) compared to Wilson's 41 snaps, which shows the lack of trust head coach Kyle Shanahan has in Mason as an offensive option. Veteran Marlon Mack -- who was promoted from the practice squad prior to Sunday's contest -- only saw three snaps on special teams. Mason shouldn't be considered a fantasy option heading into a matchup with the Rams next Monday.

Injury opens up No. 2 job Mason will take over the No. 2 spot on the 49ers' running back depth chart following the news that Tyrion Davis-Price (ankle) will miss several weeks, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Spor...

Impact Davis-Price -- who appeared to beat the undrafted Mason for the No. 2 job in practice last week -- suffered the injury late in Sunday's 27-7 win over Seattle. Mason served as the third active back and did not receive a touch (eight snaps on special teams), so it's hard to get excited about the undrafted rookie's new elevated role. Chan also added that practice squad veteran Marlon Mack is a candidate to be elevated to the active roster, so he could leapfrog the less-experienced Mason. However the backup spots shake out, Jeff Wilson (20 touches for 103 yards) was the clear lead back in Sunday's win, making him the desired fantasy target for running back stats in San Francisco heading into a matchup against the Broncos on Sunday Night Football.
