Trey Sermon Rushes For 89 Yards In Week 4 Loss
3 years agoSan Francisco 49ers running back Trey Sermon carried 19 times for 89 yards during Sunday's 28-21 Week 4 loss at home to the Seattle Seahawks. On Sunday, the rookie running back averaged just under five yards per carry against the Seahawks but was held without a target. As a result, it's difficult to predict which running back will see the most utilization weekly within Kyle Shanahan's offense. However, the 49ers traded up into the third round to select Sermon, meaning he should remain ahead of fellow rookie running back Elijah Mitchell. The latter dominated the Lions in Week 1 without Sermon, which is why it's tough to rank either as more than a mid-range RB2 with RB1 upside moving forward.
