No run on offense this season
Guerendo played all 10 of his snaps on special teams in Sunday's 26-15 loss to the Texans.
Analysis: As a rookie last season, Guerendo showcased some explosiveness out of the San Francisco backfield with averages of 5.0 yards per carry and 10.1 yards per reception over 16 games, but he has yet to play a snap on offense in the 49ers' first eight games of 2025. With lead back Christian McCaffrey having thus far stayed healthy while handling huge snap and touch counts each week, Brian Robinson has picked up the remaining scraps left over in the backfield. So long as McCaffrey and Robinson are…read more

Returns one kickoff Thursday
Guerendo ran back one kickoff for 18 yards while receiving no carries or targets in Thursday's 26-23 overtime win over the Rams.
Analysis: Christian McCaffrey continued to operate as San Francisco's bell cow (88 percent) while Brian Robinson (14 percent) remained the clear No. 2, which leaves Guerendo parked in the garage when the team is on offense. The 2024 fourth-round selection is stuck on special teams for the foreseeable future, needing an injury ahead of him on the depth chart to open up playing time. Guerendo generates no fantasy value in his current role when the 49ers visit the Buccaneers in Week 6.

Logs 14 snaps on special teams
Guerendo logged 14 snaps on special teams and was not used on offense in Sunday's 26-21 loss to the Jaguars.
Analysis: Guerendo couldn't even make an appearance in the box score as a return man after WR Skyy Moore handled all punt and kick returns Sunday. The 25-year-old Guerendo has logged zero snaps on offense through four games this season, leaving no room for fantasy utility as we encroach the quarter point of the season. Managers should have no concerns leaving Guerendo in the free-agent pool for Thursday's tilt against the Rams.

Stuck on special teams
Guerendo did not receive a carry while gaining 19 yards on a kickoff return in Sunday's 16-15 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: Guerendo continued to be used exclusively on special teams, logging all 15 of his snaps there Sunday. Brian Robinson was the only running back to receive any carries outside of starter Christian McCaffrey. Guerendo carries no fantasy value heading into a Week 4 matchup against Jacksonville.

No carries in Week 2 win
Guerendo returned two kickoffs for 47 yards and was not used on offense in Sunday's 26-21 win over the Saints.
Analysis: Guerendo failed to see the field on offense Sunday, logging all 17 of his snaps on special teams. Veteran backup Brian Robinson continues to handle all of the touches starter Christian McCaffrey doesn't gobble up on game days. More of the same can be expected against the Cardinals in Week 3, leaving Guerendo off the fantasy radar until an injury opens up playing time for the sophomore.

Limited to special teams
Guerendo played 15 snaps on special teams and did not receive a carry in Sunday's 17-13 win over the Seahawks.
Analysis: The good news for Guerendo was that he was fully cleared from the shoulder injury that limited him in camp. The bad news for the sophomore tailback is that new addition Brian Robinson usurped him on the depth chart. Guerendo dropped to third in the pecking order and was limited to special teams, returning one kickoff for 16 yards. In his current role, Guerendo provides no fantasy utility heading into next Sunday's tilt against the Saints.

Full practice Wednesday
Guerendo (shoulder) practiced fully Wednesday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Guerendo exited practice on Aug. 2 due to a shoulder injury and sat out the next two-and-a-half weeks, only to be healthy enough to play in the 49ers' preseason finale Aug. 23 and turn eight carries into 13 yards and one catch (on one target) into one yard. In the midst of it all, the team traded for Commanders RB Brian Robinson, placing Guerendo's status into question heading into Week 1. Even though Guerendo has a clean bill of health in advance of Sunday's contest at Seattle, he may play…read more

Playing through shoulder inury
Guerendo (shoulder) rushed the ball eight times for 13 yards in Saturday's 30-23 preseason win over the Chargers. He added one reception on one target for one yard.
Analysis: Guerendo started the game with Christian McCaffrey resting and Brian Robinson not yet officially with the team. Per Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle, Guerendo appeared to aggravate the shoulder injury he suffered earlier in camp in the first quarter and was wearing a brace as protection. Positively, he was able to return to the game, so it appears as though he'll be available for San Francisco's Week 1 matchup against Seattle -- albeit with an unclear role.

Facing competition from Robinson
Guerendo may open the season as San Francisco's No. 2 running back even though the team is trading for Brian Robinson, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: The 49ers presumably wouldn't trade for Robinson, even at the cost of just a sixth-round pick, unless they thought he could become their No. 2 running back. That doesn't mean he'll simply be handed the gig, however, nor does it mean he'll be comfortable with the playbook in time for Week 1 at Seattle. Still, the trade takes a chunk out of Guerendo's fantasy value, adding another legitimate competitor for backup roles after the Niners drafted Jordan James (finger) in the fifth round this spring.…read more

Returns to practice
Guerendo (shoulder) participated in Tuesday's training camp practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Guerendo suffered a shoulder injury in practice in early August, which caused him to miss the 49ers' first two preseason games. He was back on the field Tuesday and was given the green light to participate in team drills, and Wagoner relays that Guerendo was heavily involved with the offense and on special teams as a kick returner. Barring any setbacks, the 2024 fourth-rounder is on track to be available for Saturday's preseason finale against the Chargers.

Out for a few weeks
49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Guerendo (shoulder) is expected to miss a couple weeks, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Guerendo made an early exit from Saturday's practice and apparently won't be back for a while. It sounds like he has a chance to be ready for Week 1, but a preseason appearance probably isn't in the cards. Guerendo's absence could give rookie Jordan James more opportunities to mix in with the first-team offense, especially on days when Christian McCaffrey is rested.

Exits practice with apparent injury
Guerendo had an early departure from practice Saturday due to an apparent shoulder injury, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: The possible injury occurred during special-teams drills. It's not yet clear how severe the issue may be, though that should become more evident once 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan chimes in and/or based on Guerendo's practice status in the days ahead. Guerendo is the favorite to work as San Francisco's No. 2 running back this season and should also see action as a kick returner.

On field for OTAs
Guerendo (knee/ankle) was an active participant at voluntary OTAs, per the 49ers' official site.
Analysis: Guerendo sustained MCL and ankle sprains in his left leg during San Francisco's regular-season finale, but the 2024 fourth-round pick appears back to full health ahead of mandatory minicamp, which will take place June 10-11. Christian McCaffrey also looks fully healthy after having been limited to four appearances in 2024, which leaves Guerendo competing for No. 2 reps entering Year 2 of his career. The 49ers saw fit to trade Jordan Mason to Minnesota this offseason and let Elijah Mitchell link…read more

Has MCL, ankle sprains
Guerendo has been diagnosed with MCL and ankle sprains in his left leg following an MRI on Monday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The 49ers' 2024 campaign is over, but the team's season finale included yet another RB injury. On only his second carry of Sunday's game, Guerendo had his left leg twisted under him as he was tackled, and he needed a cart to go to the locker room. While Guerendo did avoid a more serious ACL injury, he's still one of four San Francisco running backs who will enter the offseason focusing on rehab, along with Christian McCaffrey (knee), Jordan Mason (ankle) and Elijah Mitchell (hamstring).…read more

MCL sprain likely, tests upcoming
Coach Kyle Shanahan said after Sunday's 47-24 loss to the Cardinals that Guerendo (knee/ankle) likely suffered an MCL sprain and will undergo further testing Monday, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports.
Analysis: Guerendo suffered knee and ankle injuries, with the knee injury likely to be an MCL sprain. The results of Monday's tests should help provide clarity on the recovery timeline for Guerendo. The 49ers' season came to a close with Sunday's defeat in the regular-season finale.

Won't return Sunday
Guerendo won't return to Sunday's game at Arizona due to knee and ankle injuries.
Analysis: Guerendo had his left leg twisted under him on his second carry of the game, and his teammates quickly motioned to the sideline for assistance. He eventually was carted off the field and ruled out not long after. With Guerendo unavailable, the 49ers will entrust the run game in Patrick Taylor and FB Kyle Juszczyk for the rest of their season finale.

Nets 99 yards in return
Guerendo took nine carries for 34 yards while bringing in all four targets for 65 yards in Monday's 40-34 loss to the Lions.
Analysis: Guerendo made a successful return from a one-game layoff due to foot and hamstring injuries Week 17. The fourth-round rookie looked no worse for wear, generating 99 yards from scrimmage in a pass-heavy game plan. The only negative aspect of Guerendo's fantasy line was a lack of trips to the end zone after quarterbacks Brock Purdy (elbow) and Joshua Dobbs vultured a pair of short touchdown rushes. Guerendo may find himself more involved as a rusher if San Francisco's injured starting QB is…read more

Clear to return in Week 17
Guerendo (foot/hamstring) doesn't have a designation for Monday's game versus the Lions, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Guerendo managed limited practices Thursday and Friday due to foot and hamstring injuries that sidelined him last Sunday in Miami. Adam Schefter of ESPN then reported Saturday afternoon that Guerendo was expected to play Week 17, which now is a formality following comments from coach Kyle Shanahan. Guerendo thus will pace the 49ers backfield Monday after doing so Weeks 14 and 15, when he combined for 37 touches for 203 total yards and two rushing TDs.

Week 17 return expected
Guerendo (foot/hamstring) is expected to play Monday against the Lions, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The 49ers have yet to post their final Week 17 injury report, but he seems destined to be listed as questionable considering he was limited in practice Thursday and Friday due to the foot and hamstring issues that sidelined him Week 16 at Miami. Assuming he's able to suit up Monday, he should take on the lead role out of San Francisco's backfield, which amounted to 37 touches for 203 yards from scrimmage and two rushing TDs between Weeks 14 and 15.

Another limited session
Guerendo (foot/hamstring) practiced in a limited capacity Friday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Guerendo now has managed back-to-back capped sessions to kick off Week 17 prep as he looks to put foot and hamstring injuries further in the rearview mirror. He sat out the 49ers' Week 16 loss at Miami due to the health concerns, and Saturday's practice report may provide a sense of his odds to return to action Monday against the Lions. If he's cleared for that contest, Guerendo likely will slot back in as the 49ers' lead runner over Patrick Taylor.

To be limited Thursday
Coach Kyle Shanahan said Guerendo (foot/hamstring) will be limited at Thursday's practice, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: As Shanahan projected Monday, Guerendo is returning to the practice field for the first time since Week 15 prep, which is a good sign after he sat out Week 16 in Miami due to foot and hamstring injuries. If Guerendo is able to make it through the week unscathed and suit up Monday against the Lions, he'd provide a boost for a 49ers backfield that will be without Christian McCaffrey (knee) and Jordan Mason (ankle) in Week 17.

Likely to practice Thursday
Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that the 49ers expect Guerendo (foot/hamstring) to practice Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Guerendo picked up foot and hamstring injuries in Week 15 that ultimately kept him off the practice field last week and out for Sunday's loss at Miami. In Guerendo's place, Patrick Taylor got the start at running back and played 51 of 64 offensive snaps, but he mustered just 25 yards from scrimmage on nine touches. Meanwhile, Deebo Samuel moonlighted with five carries for 25 yards, and fullback Kyle Juszczyk also had two touches for 26 total yards. Guerendo's return to the practice field…read more

Guerendo (foot/hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Miami, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Guerendo didn't practice this week and thus appears in danger of missing time beyond Sunday. His absence leaves Patrick Taylor and Israel Abanikanda atop the depth chart at running back, with Ke'Shawn Vaughn likely to be elevated from the practice squad before Sunday. Taylor filled in as the lead back when Guerendo missed a chunk of San Francisco's Week 14 game with a foot injury, but that doesn't necessarily mean Taylor will dominate carries Sunday afternoon with more time to prepare for…read more

Analysis: Guerendo missed Wednesday's practice session due to a new hamstring injury, and Schefter's reporting makes it seem as though he'll be officially listed as a non-participant again Thursday. The rookie fourth-round pick managed to play through a foot sprain during last Thursday's 12-6 loss to the Rams, in which he rushed 16 times for 57 yards and brought in all four targets for 18 yards, handling all of San Francisco's running back touches.

Guerendo rushed 16 times for 57 yards and brought in all four targets for 18 yards in the 49ers' 12-6 loss to the Rams on Thursday night.
Analysis: Guerendo overcame the foot sprain he'd suffered in the Week 14 win over the Bears on Sunday to suit up and handle all of San Francisco's running back touches. However, the rookie surprisingly found some tough sledding against a Rams defense that has been beatable on the ground at times this season.

Analysis: Guerendo exited in the fourth quarter due to a foot injury after compiling 128 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns. If Guerendo joins Christian McCaffrey (knee), Jordan Mason (ankle) and Elijah Mitchell (hamstring) on the sidelines Thursday against the Rams, Patrick Taylor would be the next man up in a 49ers backfield that also includes Ke'Shawn Vaughn and Israel Abanikanda.

Hurts foot after scoring two TDs
Guerendo (foot) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bears. He rushed 15 times for 78 yards and two touchdowns while catching both of his targets for 50 yards prior to the injury.
Analysis: Guerendo went to the locker room in the fourth quarter, and he's likely done for the day with the 49ers holding onto a comfortable lead. Prior to the injury, Guerendo excelled in the lead role as San Francisco worked without Christian McCaffrey (knee) and Jordan Mason (ankle), who are both on IR. Patrick Taylor will help the 49ers run out the clock. Guerendo will need to heal up quickly to be ready to face the Rams on Thursday in Week 15.

Lead role awaits

Analysis: Shanahan noted that McCaffrey is facing a six-week recovery for the PCL sprain he sustained in Sunday's loss to the Bills, while Mason is dealing with a high-ankle sprain that will keep him out through Week 17, and quite likely, the Jan. 5 regular-season finale in Arizona.

Jordan Mason (13-78-0) took over as the primary rusher from there on out, but Guerendo benefited from scoring the 49ers' only offensive touchdown in the blowout loss.

Resumes No. 3 role
Guerendo had one carry for zero yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over Tampa Bay.
Analysis: With star running back Christian McCaffrey (Achilles) returning to action and backup Jordan Mason (shoulder) healthy, Guerendo was relegated to third on San Francisco's depth chart. The rookie logged just three snaps on offense (five percent) while taking his only touch for no gain. Guerendo produced a pair of strong fantasy performances in the weeks covering for his injured teammates, but managers can safely move on from the Louisville product in such a reduced role.

Guerendo rushed 14 times for 85 yards and a touchdown while securing three of four targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 30-24 win over Dallas.
Analysis: Guerendo took over mid-game after Jordan Mason (shoulder) aggravated a nagging AC joint injury early in the contest. The 24-year-old Guerendo performed as he did the last time this scenario unfolded, which is one of the reasons the rookie was pegged a deep sleeper heading into drafts this year.

Guerendo rushed 10 times for 99 yards in the 49ers' 36-24 win over the Seahawks on Thursday night.
Analysis: The rookie saw the most robust volume of his young career in the victory, as Jordan Mason's multiple exits from the game due to a shoulder injury left Guerendo as the lead back for all but one play in the second half. Guerendo had scuffled to just 23 yards on nine carries when he took the handoff on the opening play of the 49ers' final possession, a play on which he broke off a 76-yard run up the right side of the field that he nearly scored on.

Analysis: Guerendo backed up Jordan Mason (14-89-0) as the rookie had been through the previous four games this season. The 24-year-old Guerendo produced his highest rushing total of his young career while returning a kick for 32 yards in the upset loss.

In an effort to not be too harsh on the rookie, it should be noted that he gained 23 yards on San Francisco's only kickoff return Sunday.

Earns five carries Sunday
Guerendo rushed five times for 19 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: The five carries marked a new high-water mark for the rookie after receiving just one carry for no gain in his first two appearances with San Francisco. Guerendo was spelling fill-in starter Jordan Mason (19-77-0) on Sunday, a situation that could repeat itself against the Patriots on Sunday. The 2024 fourth-round pick only warrants fantasy consideration in the event that Mason is unable to suit up in the coming weeks.

No touches on 13 snaps
Guerendo (groin) suited up for Monday's season opener against the Jets but did not record a touch in a 32-19 win.
Analysis: Guerendo made the 49ers' 53-man roster but was battling a groin injury heading into Week 1. The fourth-round pick out of Louisville got the green light and wound up logging 10 snaps on special teams and three on offense. Starter Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) did not suit up for this contest, allowing Jordan Mason (28-147-1) to go off against the Jets. Guerendo appears to be next in line should San Francisco need a runner behind CMC or Mason this season.

Set to suit up in season opener
Guerendo (groin) practiced in full Saturday and doesn't have an injury designation for Monday's Week 1 contest against the Jets.
Analysis: Guerendo was a limited participant in each of San Francisco's first two practices of the week after missing all of last week due to a groin injury. He is in line to make his NFL debut Monday, though, after returning to a full practice session Saturday. Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) is listed as questionable for the opener against the Jets but has stated that he's definitely suiting up, so Guerendo will likely see limited work in the running game behind the star tailback and backup Jordan…read more

Remains limited
Guerendo (groin) remained limited in practice Friday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The rookie missed most of training camp with a hamstring injury and then hurt his groin in late August a week after returning to practice. With Christian McCaffrey (calf) on track to play and Guerendo having taken very few practice reps this summer, there's not much chance of Guerendo having a significant role Week 1 even if he ends up being healthy enough to play.

Opens week as limited participant
Guerendo (groin) is practicing on a limited basis Thursday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Guerendo spent the early portion of training camp sidelined due to a hamstring injury, and he then tweaked his groin after returning for San Francisco's preseason finale. The rookie fourth-round pick will have two more chances to upgrade to full participation in practice ahead of Monday's regular-season opener against the Jets. Meanwhile, top running back Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) will also be limited Thursday, though he's expected to be available Week 1.

Tweaks groin in practice
Guerendo tweaked his groin Monday and won't practice this week, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: After missing training camp and most of the preseason with a hamstring injury, Guerendo returned for San Francisco's final exhibition and took 13 touches for 35 yards in a 24-24 tie with the Raiders. His depth chart standing seemingly improved despite all the missed time this summer, as longtime No. 2 running back Elijah Mitchell was placed on season-ending injured reserve due to a hamstring injury that will require surgery. Jordan Mason is now expected to enter Week 1 as the No. 2 back behind…read more

Healthy amount of action
Guerendo (hamstring) rushed 11 times for 32 yards and caught both of his targets for three yards in Friday's preseason tilt against Las Vegas.
Analysis: Guerendo returned from a hamstring injury that cost the fourth-round pick two games of action this exhibition season. The Louisville product didn't post gaudy rushing numbers in his 49ers debut, but he had an electric kickoff return of 93 yards that fell just short of paydirt. Guerendo currently sits behind veteran backups Elijah Mitchell and Jordan Mason on the depth chart, but the 6-foot, 221-pound rookie has the physical tools to profile as a fantasy prospect should he survive the impending…read more

Returning to practice
Guerendo (hamstring) will return to the practice field Tuesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Guerendo's hamstring injury has sidelined him more than three weeks, but coach Kyle Shanahan said he could have a chance to make his preseason debut Friday versus the Raiders. Given that all of Christian McCaffrey (calf), Elijah Mitchell (hamstring) and Jordan Mason (hip) are currently nicked up, Guerendo seems in line to immediately claim some valuable reps in the backfield. The rookie fourth-round pick seems to be competing with Mitchell, Mason, Patrick Taylor and Cody Schrader for a depth…read more

Could practice this week
Coach Kyle Shanahan said Sunday he's "hopeful" Guerendo (hamstring) will be able to resume practicing this week and potentially play in Friday's preseason finale against the Raiders, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Guerendo has missed more than three weeks of training camp, including San Francisco's first two preseason games, due to a hamstring injury sustained July 24. The rookie fourth-rounder will be in a position to receive valuable reps if he's indeed able to return this week, with all of Christian McCaffrey (calf), Elijah Mitchell (hamstring) and Jordan Mason (hip) nursing injuries of their own. Friday's exhibition matchup against the Raiders represents Guerendo's last chance to log game reps before…read more

Slated to miss time
Guerendo is expected to be sidelined multiple weeks due to the hamstring injury he sustained last week, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Based on Schefter's report, it seems likely that the rookie fourth-rounder will be unavailable for the 49ers' preseason opener, at a minimum. Once he's back in the mix, Guerendo will compete with Jordan Mason, Patrick Taylor and Cody Schrader for backfield slotting behind Christian McCaffrey and Elijah Mitchell.

Injures hamstring Wednesday
Guerendo departed Wednesday's training camp practice early due to a hamstring injury, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: The severity of Guerendo's injury isn't known, with head coach Kyle Shanahan saying that the running back will need to be evaluated further, according to Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site. It's a tough start for the rookie speedster, who is working to carve out a role behind Christian McCaffrey and Elijah Mitchell. Guerendo dealt with recurring soft-tissue injuries in college, so his status will warrant close monitoring.
