Latest Fantasy Rumors
Hoping to be back for postseason
Banks, who suffered a knee and ankle sprain in Sunday's win over the Raiders, is hoping to be back for the postseason, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
Banks has served as the 49ers' starting right guard in 2022 and has largely had a healthy season. However, he's already been ruled out for a Week 18 matchup against Arizona with both knee and ankle injuries. His return for the postseason would specifically boost San Francisco's rushing attack.
