Elijah Mitchell Will Play In Week 12
3 years agoSan Francisco 49ers rookie running back Elijah Mitchell (rib, finger) will play in Week 12 against the Vikings. Mitchell missed last week's game against the Jaguars and now has to compete for snaps with a healthy Jeff Wilson Jr., so it'll be interesting to see how things break down this week. Mitchell has some appeal as an RB2/3 play, but there's a chance that Mitchell will lose some valuable passing-game work to Wilson if he isn't quite comfortable catching passes yet after recovering from a broken finger that required surgery.
