2024 Fantasy Outlook
No player better represents the idea that just about any running back can thrive in Kyle Shanahan's offense than Mason. Undrafted out of Georgia Tech in 2022, Mason has averaged 5.6 yards per carry for the 49ers, and while he lacks breakaway speed, his power and sheer refusal to go down have resulted in some impressive yards after contact in a small sample. The 49ers backfield seemingly got more crowded this offseason when they drafted Isaac Guerendo in the fourth round, but it ended up working out well for Mason when Guerendo and Elijah Mitchell both missed most of training camp with injuries. Mitchell was then place on season-ending injured reserve in late August, leaving Mason as the No. 2 running back behind Christian McCaffrey to start the season. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Continues to deliver in fantasy
Mason rattled off 24 carries for 123 yards and a touchdown while adding 37 receiving yards on two receptions (three targets) in Sunday's 30-13 win over New England.
ANALYSIS
Mason continued to dominated the backfield touches in San Francisco sans starter Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles). The only other active running back to receive a carry in Sunday's run-heavy gameplan was rookie Isaac Guerendo, who fumbled that carry away for the 49ers' lone turnover. Mason has provided 20+ carries, 100+ rushing yards with at least one touchdown in three of his four starts. The Georgia Tech product will make at least two more starts while CMC continues to recover on injured reserve, making Mason a top-tier play against the Cardinals next Sunday.

It's only a matter of time before Brock Purdy's prolific yardage production leads to more touchdowns, and RW's Jerry Donabedian expects it to happen this week in a home game against the slumping Cardinals.
With GuillotineLeagues.com launching public paid leagues last week, Steve Bulanda has updated his cheat sheet to assist the hundreds of fantasy players who will be drafting this week.
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Mason fought his way onto the 49ers' 53-man roster last preseason and suited up for 19 of the team's 20 games (including playoffs). The undrafted rookie spent most of the year on special teams, but he was able to get some run as a backup in the second half of the schedule. Mason performed particularly well over a three-game stretch from Weeks 13-15, when he accrued 171 rushing yards on just 23 attempts. The Georgia Tech product should return as San Francisco's third running back in 2023 behind Christian McCaffrey and Elijah Mitchell.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Multi-game starting stint possible
Mason is a candidate to serve as the 49ers' starting running back beyond Sunday's Week 2 game against the Vikings, as San Francisco is considering placing Christian McCaffrey on injured reserve with a designation to return, per Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com.
ANALYSIS
Mason was the talk of the league after Monday night's win over the Jets, when he filled in for McCaffrey and rushed for 147 yards and a touchdown on 28 carries. Mason is already confirmed to fill the lead-back role again in Week 2 with McCaffrey ruled out, and with head coach Kyle Shanahan conceding Friday that IR is now a consideration for the star running back, Mason's run at the helm of the backfield could endure at least three additional games beyond Sunday's.
