Elijah Mitchell Dominant In Week 12 Win
3 years agoSan Francisco 49ers running back Elijah Mitchell carried 27 times for 133 yards and caught five passes for an additional 35 receiving yards during a 34-26 Week 12 win against the Minnesota Vikings. The rookie running back returned from a week off to repair a broken finger and looked incredible against a vulnerable Minnesota run defense, averaging 4.9 YPC and handling 33 touches on Sunday. Mitchell is a high-end RB2 with RB1 upside against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 13, as he now has recorded four games rushing for over 100 yards. Factor in the added passing work, and Mitchell's floor is exceptionally high, making him a must-start running back in most fantasy leagues.
