Elijah Mitchell Gets In A Limited Practice On Wednesday
3 years agoSan Francisco 49ers running back Elijah Mitchell (finger) got in a limited practice on Wednesday, which is a good first step towards his return this Sunday. Mitchell recently had surgery on his finger, so the big hurdles in practice will be his ability to catch passes and secure the ball on handoffs, if he's able to do that, he should be able to plat a near full strength against a vulnerable Vikings run defense. While Jeff Wilson Jr. will also likely be involved, he failed to deliver in his starting opportunity in Week 11, so Mitchell should still handle the bulk of the work, if active.
