Elijah Mitchell Suffers Fractured Finger
3 years agoSan Francisco 49ers rookie running back Elijah Mitchell (finger) suffered a fractured finger in Monday night's win over the Los Angeles Rams. His status for Week 11 is unclear, but doctors are optimistic that he will be just fine. There is a chance he is able to practice on Wednesday, so this doesn't seem like anything that will put him on the shelf for a significant time period. If he is unable to play against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, Jeff Wilson Jr. would become a must-add player from the waiver wire and he would immediately enter the RB2 discussion. JaMycal Hasty (ankle), who didn't play on Monday, and rookie Trey Sermon would also likely be involved behind Wilson if Mitchell misses any time.
