49ers' Brandon Aiyuk: Slow start continues Sunday
Aiyuk had four receptions (five targets) for 43 yards in Sunday's 23-17 loss to Minnesota.
Aiyuk was limited to five targets for the second consecutive week but saw his production increase against the Vikings compared to last week's two-catch dud against the Jets. The star wideout's low involvement was foreshadowed by head coach Kyle Shanahan prior to Week 1 after Aiyuk missed the entirety of the preseason schedule while in search of a contract extension. Dual-threat superstar Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) was placed on injured reserve prior to Sunday's tilt and will be missing in action for at least the first six games of the season. Deebo Samuel (8/110/0) and George Kittle (7/76/1) have picked up the slack in the passing game while Aiyuk continues to reintegrate into the game plan. The 49ers have thrown just one touchdown pass through two games this season, so a Week 3 matchup against the Rams could be when we see Aiyuk break out of his early season slump.

49ers' George Kittle: Powers through for 7/76/1
Kittle (cramps) finished with seven receptions off of eight targets for 76 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Vikings.
Kittle's fantasy managers suffered a scare in the second half of Sunday's loss when the star tight end was carted off the field while favoring his leg. Fortunately, he was only being treated for cramping and returned to the contest in short order. Kittle tacked on one more reception for 16 yards before the game's conclusion to confirm his restored health. The eccentric tight end carries a 11/116/1 receiving line into a Week 3 matchup against the Rams.

49ers' Deebo Samuel: Nets 100 yards Sunday
Samuel had eight receptions on 10 targets for 110 yards while rushing twice for a loss of 10 yards in Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Vikings.
Samuel had a rare negative day as a rusher after a broken play on San Francisco's final offensive drive resulted in a loss of nine yards for the multifaceted receiver. He still finished with his first 100-yard receiving game of the 2024 campaign after scoring his first touchdown on the ground against the Jets in Week 1. Fellow star wideout Brandon Aiyuk (4/43/0) has been coming along slowly after sitting out the entire preseason dealing with a contract dispute, allowing Samuel to shine as the team's No. 1 receiving option. The former was rewarded with a four-year, $120 million contract extension following his modified holdout this past offseason, and Samuel will be looking for a similar payday this upcoming offseason with strong production out of the gates.

49ers' Jordan Mason: Drops 20/100/1 line in second start
Mason took 20 carries for 100 yards and a rushing touchdown while bringing in his lone target for four yards in Sunday's 23-17 loss to Minnesota.
Mason followed up his impressive Week 1 fantasy performance (28/147/1) with another game of 100-plus rushing yards and his second touchdown of the season. Savvy fantasy managers who snagged Mason when starter Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) and backup Elijah Mitchell (knee) were ruled out prior to last week's win over the Jets have been rewarded handsomely. What appeared to be a hot short-term add is beginning to look like an league-changing acquisition after the aforementioned CMC was placed on injured reserve prior to Sunday's defeat (Week 7 earliest potential return). Mitchell has been ruled out for the entire year, so Mason is set to occupy the lead role in Kyle Shanahan's vaunted zone-run offense for roughly the first half of the fantasy campaign. It would behoove GMs in all fantasy formats to make sure that the Georgia Tech product is not lingering on their league's waiver wire ahead of Sunday's tilt against the Rams.

49ers' Brock Purdy: Throws for over 300 yards in loss
Purdy completed 28 of his 36 passing attempts for 319 yards, one touchdown and one interception while rushing twice for 12 yards in Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Vikings.
Purdy was charged with a second turnover in the form of a lost fumble in defeat. The 24-year-old's gaffes proved to be costly for both fantasy managers and the 49ers after the team lost by one score despite being favored in Sunday's road contest. Purdy was his usual sharp self in the pocket (78 completion percentage) outside of the pair of second-half turnovers Sunday. The star quarterback has a prime opportunity to get right against a rebuilding Rams defense next Sunday after a pair of pedestrian fantasy lines to kick off the 2024 campaign.

49ers' George Kittle: Back in Sunday's game
Kittle (cramps) returned to Sunday's contest in Minnesota, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Kittle needed a cart to get to the locker room during the third quarter, at which point it was reported he was getting an IV due to cramping, according to Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area. Now that he's back in the game, Kittle will be looking to build upon a 6-70-1 line on seven targets.

49ers' George Kittle: Takes cart to locker room
Kittle (undisclosed) was carted to the locker room during Sunday's contest at Minnesota, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Kittle seemingly has a chance to return, as the CBS broadcast relayed that the tight end is getting an IV due to cramping, per Matt Barrows of The Athletic and Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area. In the meantime, the 49ers will entrust TE duties to Eric Saubert and Jake Tonges.

49ers' Dee Winters: Not ready for return
Winters (ankle) is inactive Sunday against the Vikings.
Winters also missed the team's Week 1 win over the Jets as he continues to work on his recovery from an ankle injury suffered in the team's preseason finale. The second-year pro will now focus his efforts to return in Week 3 against the Rams.

49ers' Talanoa Hufanga: Out at Minnesota
Hufanga (knee) is listed as inactive for Sunday's game at the Vikings, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports.
Hufanga will have to wait at least one more week to make his 2024 debut as he continues to recover from the ACL tear he suffered late last season. George Odum figures to start in his place again in Week 2.

49ers' Joshua Dobbs: Working as emergency QB again
Dobbs (coach's decision) will serve as San Francisco's emergency third quarterback Sunday versus the Vikings, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
It's the second consecutive week that Dobbs has been designated the 49ers' emergency QB, as Brandon Allen has emerged as the team's preferred choice to back up Brock Purdy. Dobbs will be able to enter Sunday's game only if both Purdy and Dobbs become unavailable due to injury or ejection.

49ers' Christian McCaffrey: Likely facing six-plus-week absence
McCaffrey (calf), who was placed on injured reserve Saturday, is "likely to be out six weeks or potentially more" while he recovers from Achilles tendinitis, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
McCaffrey's placement on IR ensures that he'll miss the 49ers' next four games, but Rapoport suggests that the team is preparing for the star tailback to miss additional time beyond that. The 28-year-old isn't helped by the fact that the 49ers will play a Thursday night game in Seattle in Week 6, the first game in which McCaffrey would be eligible to return from IR. While Rapoport notes that McCaffrey won't be at an elevated risk of tearing his Achilles once he eventually plays again, the running back's Achilles tendinitis is regarded as a painful injury that will require rest and rehab for him to properly heal. Jordan Mason played 81 percent of the 49ers' offensive snaps and took on 29 touches in a Week 1 win over the Jets, and he looks like he could be in line for a heavy workload for the duration of McCaffrey's absence.
