Running back Jordan Mason is fully expected to play thorugh a sprained shoulder when the 49ers host the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.
San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan Mason waves to fans as he leaves the field after their 32-19 NFL win against the New York Jets at Levi’s Stadium on Monday, Sept. 9, 2024. with a sprained left shoulder, Mason was limited in a non-contact role the first two days of practice this week before being a full participant Friday, along with Samuel .
“When I was on our sideline, I definitely felt that loss was going to be on me, because I went down,” Mason said Thursday at his locker. “Everything worked out for the best.” “When he went down it’s like, dang, that is pretty valuable for us in the run game,” Brock Purdy said. “We always have the next guy up and we’re ready to give the next guy a shot. … But we’re excited that he’s healed up and got some rest and ready for this one.”
McCaffrey has yet to debut this season because of Achilles tendinitis, and a potential return would come after the Week 9 bye Nov. 3. General manager John Lynch, on KNBR 680-AM, said McCaffrey is doing “incredibly well, and it’s all about the ramp-up, to increasing the activity to make sure there is no setback. He’s on a good track with that. No timelines or anything.”
Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo said Thursday of facing the 49ers: “All it takes is one misfit and any running back they put back there, but especially No. 24 has been doing a really good job of it, that’s what the system is built for.” Not-so-nice things were surely said after Mason’s last carry at Levi’s Stadium. He fumbled on a first-and-goal run, and that first-career lost fumble was parlayed by the Arizona Cardinals into their game-winning touchdown drive.Ahead of 49ers vs. Chiefs, here’s how teams fared in regular-season Super Bowl rematches
