Rips off big run in return
Breida (ankle) rushed six times for 54 yards and caught his lone target for four yards in Sunday's 48-46 win over the Saints.
Analysis: Breida made his return from an ankle injury after a three-week absence, and while the light workload didn't help fantasy owners, his 9.0 yards per carry bodes well for his health and big-play ability moving forward. Tevin Coleman started the game as per usual, but Breida and Raheem Mostert took over as coach Kyle Shanahan's two-man backfield in the huge conference win. Expect the man they call "The Cheetah" to get more involved next week against the Falcons after getting a full week of practice…read more

Cleared for Week 14 return
Breida (ankle) isn't listed on the final injury report for Sunday's game in New Orleans, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Breida returns from a three-game absence for a tough matchup, facing a Saints defense that's shut down running backs to the tune of 3.5 yards per carry (third) and 62.3 rushing yards per game (second). Raheem Mostert pushed Tevin Coleman out of the picture in last week's 20-17 loss to Baltimore, but coach Kyle Shanahan could turn back to a committee now that Breida is ready to play. It's hard to recommend any of the three as a Week 14 fantasy option, as the workload uncertainty creates an ugly…read more

Practices without limitations
Breida (ankle) practiced in full Wednesday, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: With no cap on his practices for the first time since he picked up a low-ankle sprain Week 10, Breida will end a three-game absence Sunday in New Orleans. He'll rejoin a backfield that flipped on its head in the Week 13 loss at Baltimore, when Raheem Mostert received most of the running-back reps over Tevin Coleman. In that contest, Mostert handled 74 percent of the offensive snaps on his way to 21 touches for 154 yards from scrimmage and a score. As for Coleman, he got an 18-percent share,…read more

On practice field Wednesday
Breida (ankle) was present at Wednesday's practice, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: It'll be interesting to see if Breida increases his practice reps this week after being listed as a limited participant on every Week 13 injury report in advance of a third straight absence this past Sunday in Baltimore. Assuming he makes the requisite progress through his low-ankle sprain and gets the all-clear from the 49ers' training staff, he'll join a somewhat unsettled backfield Sunday at New Orleans. In the aforementioned showdown with the Ravens, Raheem Mostert received 74 percent of…read more

Expected back in Week 14
Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that he's optimistic Breida (ankle) will be ready to play in the 49ers' Week 14 game versus the Saints, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: After turning in limited practices Wednesday through Friday, Breida looked to have a decent chance at returning to action ahead of Sunday's eventual 20-17 loss to the Ravens, but the 49ers ultimately kept him inactive for a third straight game. Based on Shanahan's comments Monday, it sounds like the 49ers may have just been taking a cautious approach with Breida, who should be closer to 100 percent healthy by the time next weekend arrives. Whenever he's cleared to play, Breida will join a…read more

Remains sidelined Sunday
Breida (ankle) is listed as inactive Sunday at Baltimore, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Breida set himself up to end a two-game absence with limited practices all week, but despite an early report from Adam Schefter of ESPN that he'd do just that, the 49ers have opted for a cautious approach. In essence, the team wants him back to full capacity for a Week 14 visit to New Orleans, per Schefter. With Breida sidelined again, San Francisco's backfield will be led by Tevin Coleman, while Raheem Mostert and Jeff Wilson scoop up any reps that remain.

Likely out Week 13
Breida (ankle), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens, is expected to sit out the contest, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Schefter previously reported Saturday that Breida was in line to play, but both he and Ian Rapoport of NFL Network are now relaying that the running back is on track for a third consecutive absence. Confirmation on Breida's status will come at approximately 11:30 a.m. ET, when the 49ers release their inactive list.

Not on track to play Week 13
Breida (ankle), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens, isn't expected to play in the contest, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Rapoport's report differs from one issued hours earlier by Adam Schefter of ESPN that suggested Breida would play, so it would appear there's some uncertainty about the running back's Week 13 status. In any case, Breida seems unlikely to wrestle away the lead role in the backfield from Tevin Coleman if he does play, given that he was only a limited participant in practice this week. If Breida sits out, added snaps and touches would be in store for reserve backs Raheem Mostert and Jeff Wilson.

Expected to play Sunday
Breida (ankle), who is listed as questionable on the 49ers' official injury report, is expected to play in Sunday's game in Baltimore, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Breida has missed the last two games due to the injury but was able to return to practice this week on a limited basis. Assuming he's good to go, Breida will poach touches from lead back Tevin Coleman, while reserve backs Raheem Mostert and Jeff Wilson could also see smaller roles.

Listed as questionable
The 49ers list Breida (ankle) as questionable for Sunday's game in Baltimore, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Breida didn't practice or play in games the past two weeks, which allowed Raheem Mostert to serve as the No. 2 running back behind Tevin Coleman. A return to limited practice participation Wednesday and Thursday seemingly puts Breida on track to face the Ravens, but his status may not be known for certain until the 49ers release their inactive list around 11:30 a.m. ET on Sunday. Breida's return to the lineup would probably impact Mostert and Jeff Wilson more so than Coleman, though it's…read more

Remains limited at practice
Breida (ankle) logged another limited practice Thursday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Back-to-back limited sessions would appear to put Breida on track to suit up Sunday against the Ravens, though he could well draw an official questionable designation for the contest. If he's able to return this weekend, Breida would rejoin a backfield time-share that also includes Tevin Coleman, with Raheem Mostert and (to a lesser extent) Jeff Wilson also in the mix.

Limited Wednesday
Breida (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Breida hasn't been able to practice over the last two weeks, so Wednesday's limited session certainly represents a step in the right direction. The 24-year-old will have two more opportunities this week to increase his activity ahead of Sunday's tilt with Baltimore. If Breida gains clearance to play in Week 13, he'll mix into the backfield alongside Tevin Coleman in what will likely be a timeshare arrangement.

Could return Week 13
Coach Kyle Shanahan said Breida (ankle) "has a chance" to play Sunday against the Ravens, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Breida didn't practice over the previous two weeks as he recovered from a low-ankle sprain. His initial timetable was 1-to-2 weeks, so he's approaching his expected return date. The 24-year-old running back will first need to make his presence felt at practice, and his first chance will be Wednesday.

Sidelined again Sunday
Breida (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Packers.
Analysis: As expected, Breida won't be on the 46-man game-day roster for the second consecutive contest, allowing Raheem Mostert and (to a lesser extent) Jeff Wilson to supplement starter Tevin Coleman out of the backfield. Because his initial timeline for a recovery was 1-to-2 weeks, Breida may be reaching the end of the road as he rehabs a low-ankle sprain. First, though, he must make his presence felt at practice.

Unlikely to play Week 12
Breida (ankle) isn't expected to play Sunday against the Packers, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Considering he entered the weekend as 'doubtful' to play, Breida was highly likely to miss a second straight game due to a low-ankle sprain. His initial recovery timetable was 1-to-2 weeks, so there's a decent chance he'll be back Sunday, Dec. 1 at Baltimore, assuming he gets through the upcoming week of preparation OK.

Doubtful for SNF battle
Breida (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Sunday night's game against the Packers, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Breida has an impressive history of fighting through injuries to play at a high level, but his absence from practice for a second straight week leaves us with minimal cause for optimism regarding his Week 12 status. The 49ers likely will use Raheem Mostert as the No. 2 running back behind a slumping Tevin Coleman, who has just 77 rushing yards on 33 carries (2.3 YPC) in three games since his four-touchdown explosion Week 8 against the Panthers. Coleman does have the matchup working in his favor…read more

Not participating in practice
Breida (ankle) isn't participating in Thursday's practice, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Instead, Breida was confined to a side field, where he put in rehab work for his sprained ankle. Unless Breida shows enough improvement overnight to practice in some fashion Friday, he'll likely be listed as "doubtful" or "out" ahead of Sunday's game against the Packers. A second straight absence from Breida would pave the way for Tevin Coleman and Raheem Mostert to lead San Francisco's Week 12 ground attack.

Still not practicing
Breida (ankle) will be held out of Wednesday's practice, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: In the midst of a 1-to-2-week recovery effort from a low-ankle sprain, Breida has yet to get on the practice field since suffering the injury Week 10. As long as Breida remains sidelined, Raheem Mostert will serve as the main change-of-pace option to Tevin Coleman out of the 49ers' backfield.

Uncertain to practice Wednesday
Coach Kyle Shanahan admitted that he's unsure if Breida (ankle) will return to practice Wednesday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Breida missed the Week 11 win over the Cardinals after re-injuring the same ankle that hampered him earlier this season, so the team is clearly exercising caution in an effort to have the explosive back avoid a long-term setback. The 24-year-old was initially given a 1-to-2-week timetable to return from the low-ankle sprain, with Sunday's matchup with Green Bay representing the tail end of that range.

Analysis: Slated to miss 1-to-2 weeks due to a low-ankle sprain, Breida will see his first DNP of the campaign. Behind lead back Tevin Coleman, Raheem Mostert (knee) and Jeff Wilson are the candidates to take on Breida's usual role.

Slated to sit out Week 11
Breida (ankle), who is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, isn't in line to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The doubtful designation already made it unlikely that Breida would suit up Sunday, and Schefter's latest report only adds further credence to that notion. Even if Breida isn't inactive Sunday -- the 49ers' long injury list means that they may not have room for all their hurt players on the seven-man inactive list -- don't expect him to dress for the contest.

Deemed doubtful for Week 11
Breida (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Breida wasn't able to practice this week after an ankle sprain forced his early exit from Monday's 27-24 loss to the Seahawks. There isn't any reason to think he'll play against Arizona, but it's at least worth noting that the 49ers listed him as "doubtful" rather than "out."

Analysis: Breida is expected to miss 1-to-2 weeks as a result of a low-ankle sprain, so his listing on Wednesday's injury report isn't a surprise. If he indeed takes a seat Sunday versus the Cardinals, the 49ers backfield will be down to Tevin Coleman, Raheem Mostert and Jeff Wilson.

May be out 1-to-2 weeks
Breida is expected to sit out 1-to-2 weeks after aggravating a low-ankle sprain during Monday's loss to the Seahawks, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Breida is awaiting the results of a second opinion but appears to be trending toward an absence Sunday against the Cardinals. Having said that, he gutted out multiple injuries last season en route to recording more than 1,000 yards from scrimmage in 14 games, so it wouldn't be shocking if he eventually gets the all-clear from the 49ers' medical staff. Breida's status should be watched closely as the week goes on to see if he's able to do just that.

To get second opinion on ankle
Breida will go for a second opinion on his ankle, but initial reports are that the injury isn't too serious, but he may still need to miss time to let it heal, Tom Pelissero of NFL.com reports.
Analysis: The good news is that it doesn't sound like the type of injury that will force fantasy owners to cut ties with Breida. The bad news is that his prospects for Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals look bleak. We will wait for the second medical opinion to come in, but it sounds like Raheem Mostert and/or Jeff Wilson may be teaming up with Tevin Coleman this week if Breida is unable to go.

Aggravates ankle in loss
Breida (ankle) ran 10 times for 18 yards before leaving Monday's loss to Seattle with an ankle injury.
Analysis: Breida carried a questionable tag for an ankle injury heading into the contest, and it appears that he re-injured that same ankle. The speedy back is sure to undergo an MRI this week to determine the severity of the injury.

Analysis: As expected, Breida is fully healthy heading into Monday's pivotal divisional matchup against the Seahawks. While Tevin Coleman is expected to receive his usual workload, both Breida and Coleman could see even better running lanes as left tackle Joe Staley (leg), right tackle Mike McGlinchey (knee) and fullback Kyle Juszczyk (knee) are all expected to play.

Analysis: Back-to-back limited practices would seemingly put Breida on track to play in Monday's divisional battle with the Seahawks. He has a well-established history of playing through injuries, often at a high level. The 49ers' already-potent rushing attack may get a nice boost this week, with LT Joe Staley (leg), RT Mike McGlinchey (knee) and FB Kyle Juszczyk (knee) all hoping to return from injuries.

Analysis: Breida logged a similar number of reps as fullback Kyle Juszczyk (knee) and tackles Joe Staley (fibula) and Mike McGlinchey (knee), a trio that will boost the rushing attack if any of them return to action Monday against the Seahawks. For much of the last two seasons, Breida has played through injuries, so he's a good bet to be available again Week 10. In the end, though, Saturday's injury report will reveal his odds to suit up.

Analysis: All three key cogs in the 49ers' blocking unit returned to practice Tuesday after lengthy layoffs. McGlinchey's status is still in question, but Staley and Juszczyk claimed that they are both "100 percent" heading into a pivotal matchup against the Seahawks.

Breida (ankle) rushed 15 times for 78 yards and secured both targets for 14 yards in the 49ers' 28-25 win over the Cardinals on Thursday.
Analysis: Breida helmed the 49ers' backfield after overcoming his ankle injury during the short week, out-touching backfield mate Tevin Coleman on the ground by three carries. Breida corroborated the fitness of his ankle with a game-high 31-yard run, and his rushing total was his highest since Week 4 against the Browns.

Breida (ankle) was listed as a limited on Monday's practice estimate, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Breida was injured late in the first half of Sunday's win over the Panthers and didn't return for the remainder of the game. It's possible the 49ers simply held him out for precautionary purposes since they had a comfortable lead, and the fact he would've been able to practice in some capacity Monday could support that notion.

Injures ankle Sunday
Brieda suffered an ankle injury during Sunday's game versus the Panthers, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Just before halftime, Brieda was visibly shaken up and slowly made his way to the locker room, according to Maiocco. Considering Tevin Coleman scored three TDs in the first half, the 49ers probably can make due without Breida for the rest of the afternoon. No matter, if Brieda is unable to return, he'll end Week 8 with 11 carries for 35 yards and one reception (on one target) for 15 yards.

No carries after return
Breida (eye) did not receive another carry after getting poked in the eye in the second half Sunday, finishing with eight carries for 35 yards in a 9-0 win over Washington.
Analysis: Breida was cleared to return after being evaluated mid-game, so fantasy owners shouldn't be concerned outside of the pedestrian stat line. The 24-year-old has seen a slight drop in usage since Tevin Coleman returned from injury three weeks ago (10.7 carries per game compared to 13.7 prior). Breida remains the "1B" in this powerful rushing offense, but those invested in the speedy back are hoping for a signature breakaway play against a tough Carolina front Sunday after two lackluster weeks.

Breida carried 13 times for 36 yards and caught four passes for 27 additional yards during Sunday's 20-7 win over the Rams.
Analysis: Although Tevin Coleman touched the ball 20 times in this one, Breida received 17 touches of his own as the team remained focused on using both backs. Breida's average of 2.8 yards per rush, while underwhelming, was better than Coleman's mark of 2.5, and he received four targets compared to two for the latter. There should be opportunities for both players to contribute in next week's road game against the Redskins, though it seems unlikely that either one dominates the touches out of the…read more

Big game against Browns
Breida rushed 11 times for 114 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 31-3 win over the Browns. He also caught all three of his targets for 15 yards and another score.
Analysis: Breida started the game with a bang, ripping off a career-long, 83-yard touchdown run on San Francisco's first offensive play of the night. The jet-heeled tailback then followed that with a five-yard touchdown catch two drives later. Overall, those contributions fueled Breida's impressive performance, which came while fellow tailback Tevin Coleman returned to the fold following an ankle injury. In his first action since Week 1, Coleman actually led the Niners with 16 carries, gaining 97 yards…read more

Productive despite committee
Breida carried the ball 14 times for 68 yards while catching two of three targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Steelers.
Analysis: While the third-year back has piled up 220 scrimmage yards over the last two games, Breida's production could have been even greater were he not stuck in a backfield committee. Raheem Mostert ran for a team-high 79 yards Sunday, Jeff Wilson banged home two more short TDs, and even fullback Kyle Juszczyk got in on the action with 51 receiving yards. Tevin Coleman (ankle) will also rejoin the active roster at some point, so while Breida's big-play ability should keep him involved in the offense,…read more

Goes for 132 yards in win
Breida ran for 121 yards on 12 yards and added an 11-yard reception during Sunday's 41-17 win over the Bengals
Analysis: Breida gashed the Bengals early, juking out half of the Bengals' front for a 34-yard run on third down early in the second quarter. It was a nice improvement over Week 1's uphill struggle for 37 yards. With Tevin Coleman (ankle) out, Breida and Raheem Mostert have split touches pretty evenly with a 28-26 lead for Breida, though Mostert has more total yards and the duo's lone touchdown. Next up is a struggling Steelers squad in Week 3.

Role expands
Breida should be in line for a larger share of carries with Tevin Coleman (ankle) already ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Bengals, according to Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area.
Analysis: Breida now becomes San Francisco's top rushing option following the injury news, although he was already expected to be a significant part of the backfield rotation this year. The 24-year-old had a quiet season debut (15 carries for 37 yards) after taking over for Coleman against the Buccaneers on Sunday, but don't let that deter you from rolling the big-play back (5.3 YPC in 2018) against the Bengals this week. Raheem Mostert figures to occupy Breida's "1B" role until Coleman can return to…read more

Sees bulk of rushing work
Breida rushed 15 times for 37 yards and failed to bring in his only target during the 49ers' 31-17 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Analysis: Breida appeared to head into the locker room for an IV at one point according to the game telecast, but with fellow back Tevin Coleman exiting the game early due to an ankle injury, Breida still comfortably paced the 49ers in carries. Change-of-pace option Raheem Mostert logged nine totes and parlayed them into 40 yards as a complement to Breida, outshining the starter in terms of efficiency. Coach Kyle Shanahan hinted at a potential multi-week absence for Coleman after the game, so even though…read more

Listed ahead of Coleman
Breida is listed ahead of Tevin Coleman on the 49ers' posted depth chart.
Analysis: Regardless of the 49ers' depth chart order on paper, it's clear that Breida and Coleman will be both see their share of touches out of the gate, with Jerick McKinnon (knee) on IR. Though at this stage the arrangement may slightly tilt in Breida's favor, Coleman figures to see enough work to merit fantasy consideration out of the gate, as this is shaping up to be a true timeshare that could eventually tilt toward either back if one of them gets on an early-season roll.

Chief offensive producer in win
Breida ran for 44 yards on seven carries, adding two receptions for 31 yards and a touchdown during Saturday's 27-17 preseason win against the Chiefs.
Analysis: The 24-year-old back made his 2019 preseason debut last week against the Broncos, but didn't make the offensive impact we grew accustomed to seeing last year when he racked up 1,075 scrimmage yards and five total touchdowns. Breida's former Georgia Southern teammate, Jerick McKinnon, continues to battle his way back from an ACL injury suffered last summer, leaving early season first-team carries up for grabs between him and free-agent signee Tevin Coleman.

Makes first preseason appearance
Breida rushed once for four yards and caught his lone target for no yardage in Monday night's 24-15 preseason win over the Broncos.
Analysis: Breida entered the game behind fellow tailback Tevin Coleman, who finished with 21 yards on three carries -- although neither player featured beyond the first quarter as they saw their first action of the preseason. Coleman appears to be the favorite to lead the backfield in touches, but with Jerrick McKinnon still sorting out his knee issue, Breida should retain a meaningful role in coach Kyle Shanahan's run-friendly offense.

Doesn't play against Dallas
Breida didn't play during Saturday's preseason opener against Dallas.
Analysis: It's unclear if Breida's absence is related to the pectoral injury that held him out for most of the offseason program. He avoided the PUP list at the start of training camp, and there hasn't been any report about a setback. The 49ers may give Breida some run later in the preseason.

Dodges PUP list
Breida (pectoral) wasn't placed on the PUP list to start training camp, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: This doesn't necessarily mean he'll have full clearance, but it does suggest Breida is ready for some level of participation. A slight pectoral tear held him out for part of OTAs and June minicamp, with the third-year pro joining Jerick McKinnon (knee) in the 49ers' rehab group. McKinnon will open camp on the PUP list after suffering a minor setback in his ACL rehab earlier this month. Breida and McKinnon are competing with Tevin Coleman for snaps in a crowded backfield.

Nursing torn pec
Breida suffered a slightly torn pectoral muscle while lifting weights but is expected to be ready for the start of training camp, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: The injury isn't believed to be too serious, but Breida still will be held out of all workouts until the start of training camp, when he is expected to be cleared. Breida should have a significant role in the 49ers backfield this season alongside Tevin Coleman and Jerick McKinnon (knee).

Expects significant role
The 49ers told Breida that he, Tevin Coleman and Jerick McKinnon (knee) will all have significant roles in the 2019 offense, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. "They've said, 'Hey, we're going to use all you guys,'" Breida said. "All three of us are going to be used a lot. I don't want to give away any secrets, but we're all going to be used."
Analysis: The signing of Coleman seemed a bit odd with McKinnon coming back from a torn ACL and Breida coming off a season with 5.3 yards per carry. Coach Kyle Shanahan does tend to create a lot of touches for his running backs, and none of the bunch has ever handled a workhorse role for more than a few weeks at a time. Breida also noted that the ankle injury he played through last season didn't really affect his straight-line speed but had a major impact on his cutting ability. He missed two games and…read more

Gets even more competition
The 49ers signed Tevin Coleman to join Breida (ankle) and Jerrick McKinnon (knee) in the backfield, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: It's a bit odd for the 49ers to invest in another B-level running back, considering Breida was excellent in 2018 and McKinnon is entering the second season of a four-year, $30 million contract. To be fair, none of the three running backs has a track record of holding up to a workhorse role, so there's a decent case to be made for throwing numbers at the position. Breida's 2018 mark of 5.3 yards per carry would seem to give him a strong argument for first crack at the lead job, but there's no…read more

Could lose work to McKinnon
Breida (ankle) is expected to face more competition out of the backfield in 2019 with Jerick McKinnon (knee) returning from injury, Joe Fann of the 49ers' official site reports.
Analysis: Breida was expected to handle the smaller portion of a timeshare before McKinnon suffered a torn ACL eight days before the start of the regular season. The second-year pro responded with a monstrously efficient campaign, averaging 5.3 yards on 153 carries and 9.7 yards on 27 catches (31 targets) despite playing through an ankle sprain for most of the year. Breida finally landed on injured reserve for Week 17, but there hasn't been any report of offseason surgery being in the works. He'll likely…read more

Lands on injured reserve
Breida (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.
Analysis: The 49ers declared Breida out for the season finale early in the week, so this move is just to add some healthy bodies for Sunday. The 23-year-old was injured throughout much of the season and will leave Jeff Wilson and Alfred Morris to handle backfield duties Week 17.

Despite missing two full games and parts of others, he'll finish his second campaign with 153 carries for 854 yards (5.3 YPC) and three touchdowns to go with 27 receptions (on 31 targets) for 261 yards and two TDs.

Ruled out of Sunday's game
Brieda (ankle) won't return to Sunday's game versus the Bears.
Analysis: Such has been Brieda's fate on other occasions this season, but this one comes in the midst of fantasy championship pursuits. He'll leave Week 16 with four carries for 20 yards and one reception (on one target) for six yards. Jeff Wilson will man the 49ers backfield for the rest of this contest and perhaps in the season finale if Breida's aggravation is serious enough.

Aggravates ankle Sunday
Breida (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bears.
Analysis: Injured to start the second quarter, Breida was able to walk off the field under his own power before making a visit to the blue sideline tent, and eventually, the locker room. The culprit was again his ankle, which has forced one absence and numerous other in-game departures this season. Expect Jeff Wilson to carry the load in the event Breida doesn't reenter the contest.

Cleared for Week 16
Breida (ankle) doesn't have a designation on the 49ers' final injury report for Sunday's game against the Bears.
Analysis: Breida will continue playing through the same ankle injury that has bothered him for most of the season, hoping to avoid an in-game setback like the one he suffered during overtime of last week's 26-23 win over the Seahawks. He led the Niners in both carries (17) and receptions (five) during that contest, while Jeff Wilson was limited to seven touches. It's possible the team evens out the distribution this weekend in an effort to limit the strain on Breida's ankle.

Practices in limited fashion
Breida (ankle) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: In the wake of another aggravation of his ankle injury, Breida has been able to practice in a limited capacity this week, which mostly is par for the course with the 49ers' starting running back. An absence aside Week 14, he's played at least 39 percent of the offensive snaps in 10 of 13 appearances. In his most recent one Week 15 against the Seahawks, he logged a season-best 73 percent of those snaps, which translated to 96 scrimmage yards on 22 touches.

The 49ers quickly ruled out Breida the last time he suffered an aggravation Week 14, but on this occasion, he kicked off the week with a limited session. Coming off a performance with 96 yards from scrimmage on 22 touches, Breida may have difficulty upholding that standard this weekend against the Bears' second-ranked run defense.

Aggravates ankle
Breida aggravated his ankle injury toward the end of Sunday's 26-23 overtime win over the Seahawks, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Breida played until the final few snaps of the game, finishing with 17 carries for 50 yards and five catches for 46 yards (on five targets). The 49ers held him out for a week the last time he aggravated his lingering ankle injury, allowing Jeff Wilson to pile up 23 carries for 90 yards in a 20-14 win over the Broncos in Week 14.

Analysis: On the heels of limited practice sessions all week, Breida is returning from a one-game absence due to an ankle injury that has plagued him for much of the season.

What's less certain is what Breida's workload may look like as he returns from a one-game absence.

Breida (ankle) said he's on track to play Sunday against the Seahawks, Cam Inman of Bay Area News Group reports. "As long as everything keeps going the way it has, they gave me the green light and I'll be ready to go," Breida said Friday.
Analysis: Coach Kyle Shanahan didn't sound quite as optimistic, though he did acknowledge Breida has made significant progress. Listed as questionable after logging limited practices each day this week, the second-year pro seems to be on track for a Sunday return. Jeff Wilson piled up 230 scrimmage yards on 47 touches the past two games, but he didn't score any touchdowns or break off any runs longer than 11 yards.

Questionable to rejoin lineup
Breida (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: A limited practice participant throughout the week, Breida appears truly questionable after missing a 20-14 win over the Broncos in Week 14. Another absence would leave Jeff Wilson to handle a large workload, following back-to-back games with 54 or more snaps and 23 or more touches. It will be tough to trust either running back in fantasy lineups if Breida ends up playing, as the 49ers might scale back his workload to decrease the odds of another injury aggravation.

Aggravates ankle in warmups
Coach Kyle Shanahan said Breida aggravated his ankle injury during pregame warmups for Sunday's 43-16 loss to the Seahawks, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Analysis: This is the obvious explanation for Jeff Wilson piling up 134 yards on 23 touches while Breida was limited to six yards on five carries and 51 yards on three receptions. The second-year pro had no problem playing through shoulder and knee injuries in September, but the ankle issue has continued to pop up throughout the season.

Seemingly limited by ankle
Breida gained six yards on five carries and 51 yards on three catches in Sunday's 43-16 loss to Seattle.
Analysis: Breida took a clear back seat to Jeff Wilson, who piled up 134 yards on 23 touches (eight catches) despite exiting the game at one point to be evaluated for a foot injury. Wilson re-entered the contest and continued dominating the backfield work, while Breida was in and out of the game all afternoon. It may be time for the 49ers to consider resting their top running back, even though he's often been effective while playing at less than 100 percent. San Francisco will host the Broncos in Week 14.

Analysis: Breida was projected to see a bump in touches with veteran Alfred Morris (coach's decision) inactive, but rookie Jeff Wilson Jr. ended up taking seven touches from him. However, Breida still doubled him up in carries while eclipsing the 100-yard mark for the second straight game and third time overall this season.

The second-year back struck first with a three-yard touchdown rush in the second quarter, then hauled in an 11-yard score shortly after halftime.

Tallies 41 rushing yards in win
Breida (ankle) rushed 12 times for 41 yards and brought in his only target for three yards in the 49ers' 34-3 win over the Raiders on Thursday. He also recovered a fumble.
Analysis: Breida was outperformed by backfield mate Raheem Mostert, who ultimately suffered what appears to be a season-ending forearm injury during the contest. That projects to leave Breida in the driver's seat for lead-back duties moving forward, and the 11 days off before a Week 10 Monday night battle against the Giants should do the 23-year-old back some good.

Active Week 9
Breida (ankle) is listed as active Thursday against the Raiders.
Analysis: Per usual, Breida is playing with his health compromised, but it hasn't stopped him from leading the backfield most weeks this season. In a Week 8 loss at Arizona, he handled 31 (of 66) snaps on offense, which was nearly three times the usage of fellow running backs Raheem Mostert (12) and Alfred Morris (11). With Mostert tending to an ankle injury himself, Breida seems like a safe bet to maintain the upper hand in the 49ers backfield.

Analysis: There's little question the banged-up running back will be available, as he's played through all manner of injuries this season. Due to the presence of Raheem Mostert (ankle) and Alfred Morris, though, Breida has a bit of competition for reps. Moreover, there's the distinct chance Breida spends time with the medical staff at some point during the contest, capping his potential.
