Could fall back to No. 3 RB role Jordan Mason is doing better with his tight hamstring, per David Lombardi of The Athletic, which could result in him resuming backup RB duties while Davis-Price reverts to the thir...

Impact Davis-Price surprisingly worked as San Francisco's No. 2 back behind Christian McCaffrey against the Commanders on Saturday, and he tallied 30 yards on nine carries. The rookie's elevated role was likely due to Jordan Mason dealing with a hamstring injury and being limited to work on special teams. Now that Mason has improved, he's expected to jump back over Davis-Price on the RB hierarchy. Mason has been quite effective lately, racking up 171 rushing yards on 23 carries between Weeks 13 and 15.

Unexpected role elevation Davis-Price rushed nine times for 30 yards in Saturday's 37-20 win over the Commanders.

Impact Davis-Price was elevated to the No. 2 spot on the running back depth chart despite being kept as a healthy scratch in recent weeks. Regular backup Jordan Mason missed practice with a tight hamstring, perhaps leading to the unexpected game plan change in Week 16. If head coach Kyle Shanahan decides to stick with TDP as his change-of-pace back against Las Vegas next Sunday, he could provide value as a cheap flier in DFS formats.

Sitting out Sunday Davis-Price (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Buccaneers, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact Davis-Price has failed to earn a steady role in the 49ers' offense this season. The rookie remains behind Jordan Mason and lead back Christian McCaffrey, while practice squad elevation Tevin Coleman while dress ahead of him against Tampa Bay for Week 14. He'll work to earn the opportunity to suit up Week 15 against the Seahawks.

Doesn't see field Sunday Davis-Price did not see the field on offense or on special teams in Sunday's 33-17 win over the Dolphins.

Impact Davis-Price figured to be in the mix for snaps behind Christian McCaffrey on Sunday, but it was Jordan Mason (8-51-0) who took over Elijah Mitchell's (knee) backup spot while maintaining his usual role on special teams. The 2022 third-round pick has struggled to find his way onto the field despite the 49ers having a multitude of injury problems at the running back position this season. For fantasy managers that stashed Davis-Price in hopes he could have a role in San Francisco, it's probably safe to move on ahead of Sunday's tilt against the Buccaneers.

Could re-emerge as McCaffrey backup Davis-Price, who has been a healthy inactive for the 49ers' last three games, could serve as the No. 2 running back behind Christian McCaffrey (knee) in Sunday's game against the D...

Impact The last time Davis-Price saw action was in the 49ers' 44-23 loss to the Chiefs in Week 7, when McCaffrey was on a limited snap count in his San Francisco debut. Davis-Price served as McCaffrey's main backup for that contest, as Jeff Wilson was sent out to Miami in a trade a few days earlier and Elijah Mitchell was still on injured reserve. Mitchell returned to action following the Niners' Week 9 bye and served as McCaffrey's main understudy the past three games, though the former is now set to go back on IR after suffering an MCL sprain to his left knee in this past Sunday's win over the Saints. Meanwhile, McCaffrey was able to finish the game while battling knee irritation, temporarily clouding the star back's status for the 49ers' Week 13 game against the Dolphins. Even if McCaffrey ends up being able to play through the knee issue, the 49ers could look to manage his workload by incorporating Davis-Price, who has logged 16 carries for 37 yards and has yet to record a reception across three appearances. Jordan Mason has dressed ahead of Davis-Price the last three weeks and even picked up five carries this past Sunday, but Mason has mostly been active due to his status as a core special-teams contributor and may not be ahead of Davis-Price in the pecking order for snaps out of the backfield.

Remains out Week 12 Davis-Price has been ruled a healthy scratch for Sunday's game against the Saints.

Impact Davis-Price will be a healthy inactive for the third game in a row after failing to see the field since the 49ers' Week 8 win over the Rams. With the rookie third-rounder out, Christian McCaffrey, Elijah Mitchell and Jordan Mason will once again slot in as San Francisco's top three backs Week 12.

NOVEMBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Healthy scratch again Davis-Price (coach's decision) has been ruled inactive for Monday's game against the Cardinals.

Impact Davis-Price saw his playing time fall off Week 8, and he will be a healthy scratch for the second game in a row. With the rookie sidelined, Christian McCaffrey, Elijah Mitchell and Jordan Mason will once again slot in as the 49ers' top three running backs Week 11. Davis-Price's next opportunity to suit up will come against the Saints on Sunday, Nov. 27.

NOVEMBER 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Healthy scratch Sunday Davis-Price (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Davis-Price didn't see any playing time during the 49ers' Week 8 matchup against the Rams, and he'll be a healthy scratch following the Week 9 bye. Christian McCaffrey, Elijah Mitchell and Jordan Mason will operate as San Francisco's three active running backs Sunday.

NOVEMBER 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

No playing time Sunday Davis-Price did not log any snaps in Sunday's 31-14 win over the Rams.

Impact Davis-Price was active for this contest, but he wasn't used in any capacity in the win. The addition of star running back Christian McCaffrey (26 touches) and the presence of veteran backup Jeff Wilson (six touches) pushes the rookie back into a reserve role moving forward. Davis-Price and the 49ers will resume play after the upcoming bye week against the Chargers on Nov. 13.

Plays 13 snaps on offense Davis-Price rushed twice for four yards and failed to bring in either of his targets in Sunday's 44-23 loss to Kansas City.

Impact Davis-Price was essentially a healthy scratch in his return from an ankle injury last week, so Sunday's brief action was actually an increase in playing time. The third-round pick from this year's draft has not played well as a backup through seven weeks, posting a meager 2.3 yards per carry on 16 rushing attempts. The addition of Christian McCaffrey pushes TDP even further down the depth chart, making the rookie a non-factor heading into next Sunday's tilt against the Rams.

OCTOBER 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

No touches in return Davis-Price (ankle) logged one offensive snap and received no touches in Sunday's 28-14 loss to Atlanta.

Impact Davis-Price returned from a three-game layoff just in time to assist a banged up 49ers backfield, but he was essentially deployed as a healthy scratch. Head coach Kyle Shanahan did not turn to his third-round pick from this year's draft despite both Jeff Wilson (7/25/0 and a fumble) and Tevin Coleman (4/3/0) struggling from the opening snap. Perhaps TDP will get a few touches against the Chiefs next Sunday.

Logs full practice Wednesday Davis-Price (ankle) practiced fully Wednesday, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

Impact After suffering a high-ankle sprain Week 2 against the Seahawks, Davis-Price didn't mix into any drills the last three weeks, so his ability to handle every rep Wednesday signals that he's mostly past the issue. Jeff Wilson (shoulder) has been leading the 49ers backfield since Elijah Mitchell (knee) went down in the season opener, but Davis-Price, a rookie third-round pick, could challenge Tevin Coleman for complementary RB touches moving forward. In his sole appearance this season, Davis-Price mustered 33 yards on 14 carries (2.4 YPC) and wasn't targeted.

Could return to practice Wednesday Davis-Price (ankle) was spotted taking part in a workout prior to Sunday's 37-15 win over the Panthers and could be ready to return to practice Week 6, Matt Barrows of The Athletic...

Impact The rookie third-round pick out of LSU hasn't suited up since Week 2 due to a high-ankle sprain, but the 49ers' decision not to move him to injured reserve always left open the possibility that he would miss fewer than four games on account of the injury. Davis-Price still looks like he has a chance to limit his absence to three games and play this coming Sunday in Atlanta, but he'll almost certainly have to return to full practice participation by Friday for that to become a reality. With Elijah Mitchell (knee) likely out until November, Jeff Wilson has a temporary stranglehold on the No. 1 role out of the backfield, but the slotting behind him on the depth chart remains unsettled. Tevin Coleman handled the No. 2 role behind Wilson against Carolina in Week 5 and scored two touchdowns, but he managed just 23 yards on eight carries (2.9 average).

Set to miss time with ankle injury Coach Kyle Shanahan relayed Monday that Davis-Price will miss a few weeks with a high-ankle sprain, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact With Elijah Mitchell (knee) on IR, Davis-Price stepped into an increased role in the 49ers backfield Week 2 behind Jeff Wilson, carrying the ball 14 times for 33 yards. Now that Davis-Price is in line to miss some time, rookie Jordan Mason, who joined the team as an undrafted free agent in May, now should have an opportunity to carve out a complementary role in the coming weeks, while Marlon Mack is a candidate to be promoted from the team's practice squad.

SEPTEMBER 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Big volume in Week 2 win Davis-Price carried the ball 14 times for 33 yards in Sunday's 27-7 win over the Seahawks.

Impact The rookie was inactive last week, but Davis-Price worked as the 49ers' No. 2 back behind Jeff Wilson in this one after Elijah Mitchell (knee) landed on the IR. He saw most of his touches in the second half after San Francisco took a 20-0 lead into intermission and did little with his opportunities, but fellow rookie Jordan Mason didn't see any touches at all. The team's overall offensive scheme could see some big changes with Jimmy Garoppolo taking over for Trey Lance (ankle) under center, but Davis-Price's poor numbers in his NFL debut don't guarantee him any sort of significant role in Week 3 against the Broncos.

Efficient in second preseason game Davis-Price rushed 10 times for 41 yards in Saturday's preseason win over the Vikings. He added one reception for six yards.

Impact Davis-Price was the third back on the field after Trey Sermon and JaMycal Hasty, though he still appeared on the team's first drive. He tallied only one additional carry in the first half, though he ripped off a series of impressive gains that went for 14, 12 and six yards later in the contest. Davis-Price's role in the offense remains unclear for the moment, though he does shift up the depth chart so long as Elijah Mitchell (hamstring) remains sidelined.

Modest production in preseason win Davis-Price rushed 10 times for 36 yards and failed to bring in his only target during the 49ers' 28-21 preseason win over the Packers on Friday night.

Impact The rookie third-round pick paced the backfield in carries on a night when Elijah Mitchell (hamstring) and Jeff Wilson (coach's decision) didn't see action. However, Davis-Price's backfield mates JaMycal Hasty and Jordan Mason averaged 7.2 and 5.0 yards per carry, respectively, shining the light on the LSU product's struggles a bit more. Davis-Price's next opportunity to make a case for a backup role comes in a road matchup against the Vikings a week from Saturday night.

Will compete for backup job in camp Davis-Price has an opportunity to secure the primary backup role to Elijah Mitchell in training camp, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Mitchell had a breakout rookie campaign in 2021, so there's no controversy as to who will head the 49ers backfield this season. However, the change-of-pace/backup role is up for grabs, and Davis-Price is in prime position to prove his meddle and claim the job if he can outperform veteran Jeff Wilson and San Francisco's third-round pick from a year ago, Trey Sermon. From a fantasy perspective, Davis-Price shouldn't project to be an impact player Week 1 if Mitchell stays healthy this preseason, but the former possesses the north-south physical running style to produce rushing stats and touchdown potential should he be called upon to start this season.
