5 years agoSan Francisco 49ers running back Jerick McKinnon (knee) could return to individual drills this week, per head coach Kyle Shanahan. McKinnon received a platelet-rich plasma injection 17 days ago after dealing with knee soreness as he recovers from a torn ACL. While individual work is encouraging, he will not participate in team drills as the Niners remains cautious on his situation. McKinnon’s absence clears more opportunities for Tevin Coleman and Matt Breida, but also opens a window for Raheem Mostert, who played well in the team’s second preseason game. Without a clear timetable on his return from a major injury, McKinnon should keep slipping on fantasy draft boards.--Andrew Le - RotoBaller
