Guerendo rushed five times for 19 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Rams. The five carries marked a new high-water mark for the rookie after receiving just one carry for no gain in his first two appearances with San Francisco. Guerendo was spelling fill-in starter Jordan Mason (19-77-0) Sunday, a situation which could repeat itself against the Patriots on Sunday. The 2024 fourth-round pick only warrants fantasy consideration in the event that Mason is unable to suit up in the coming weeks.

Guerendo rushed five times for 19 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Rams. The five carries marked a new high-water mark for the rookie after receiving just one carry for no gain in his first two appearances with San Francisco. Guerendo was spelling fill-in starter Jordan Mason (19-77-0) Sunday, a situation which could repeat itself against the Patriots on Sunday. The 2024 fourth-round pick only warrants fantasy consideration in the event that Mason is unable to suit up in the coming weeks.
Guerendo (groin) suited up for Monday's season opener against the Jets but did not record a touch in the 32-19 win. Guerendo made the 49ers' 53-man roster but was battling a groin injury heading into Week 1. The fourth-round pick out of Louisville got the green light and would up logging 10 snaps on special teams and three on offense. Starter Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) did not suit up for this contest, affording fellow backup Jordan Mason (28/147/1) to go off against the Jets. Guerendo appears to be next in line should San Francisco need a runner behind CMC or Mason this season.
Guerendo (groin) practiced in full Saturday and doesn't have an injury designation for Monday's Week 1 contest against the Jets. Guerendo was a limited participant in each of San Francisco's first two practices of the week after missing all of last week due to a groin injury. He is in line to make his NFL debut Monday, though, after returning to a full practice session Saturday. Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) is listed as questionable for the opener against the Jets but has stated that he's definitely suiting up, so Guerendo will likely see limited work in the running game behind the star tailback and backup Jordan Mason.
Guerendo (groin) remained limited in practice Friday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports. The rookie missed most of training camp with a hamstring injury and then hurt his groin in late August a week after returning to practice. With Christian McCaffrey (calf) on track to play and Guerendo having taken very few practice reps this summer, there's not much chance of Guerendo having a significant role Week 1 even if he ends up being healthy enough to play.
Guerendo (groin) is practicing on a limited basis Thursday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports. Guerendo spent the early portion of training camp sidelined due to a hamstring injury, and he then tweaked his groin after returning for San Francisco's preseason finale. The rookie fourth-round pick will have two more chances to upgrade to full participation in practice ahead of Monday's regular-season opener against the Jets. Meanwhile, top running back Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) will also be limited Thursday, though he's expected to be available Week 1.
Guerendo tweaked his groin Monday and won't practice this week, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports. After missing training camp and most of the preseason with a hamstring injury, Guerendo returned for San Francisco's final exhibition and took 13 touches for 35 yards in a 24-24 tie with the Raiders. His depth chart standing seemingly improved despite all the missed time this summer, as long-time No. 2 running back Elijah Mitchell was placed on season-ending injured reserve due to a hamstring injury that will require surgery. Jordan Mason now figures to enter Week 1 as the No. 2 back behind Christian McCaffrey, leaving Guerendo to focus on kickoff returns for the time being. Shanahan said Guerendo could be back at practice as soon as next week, meaning the rookie isn't ruled out for a Week 1 matchup with the Jets on Monday Night Football.
Guerendo (hamstring) rushed 11 times for 32 yards and caught both of his targets for three yards in Friday's preseason tilt against Las Vegas. Guerendo returned from a hamstring injury that cost the fourth-round pick two games of action this exhibition season. The Louisville product didn't post gaudy rushing numbers in his 49ers debut, but he had an electric kickoff return of 93 yards that fell just short of pay dirt. Guerendo currently sits behind veteran backups Elijah Mitchell and Jordan Mason on the depth chart, but the 6-foot, 221-pound rookie has the physical tools to profile as a fantasy prospect should he survive the impending roster cuts ahead the Sep. 27 deadline.
Guerendo (hamstring) will retake the practice field Tuesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports. Guerendo's hamstring injury has sidelined him more than three weeks, but coach Kyle Shanahan said he could have a chance to make his preseason debut Friday versus the Raiders. Given that all of Christian McCaffrey (calf), Elijah Mitchell (hamstring) and Jordan Mason (hip) are currently nicked up, Guerendo seems in line to immediately face an opportunity for valuable reps in his return to the practice field. The rookie fourth-round pick seems to be competing with Mitchell, Mason, Patrick Taylor and Cody Schrader for a depth role behind McCaffrey.
Coach Kyle Shanahan said Sunday he's "hopeful" Guerendo (hamstring) will be able to resume practicing this week and potentially play in Friday's preseason finale against the Raiders, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports. Guerendo has missed more than three weeks of training camp, including San Francisco's first two preseason games, due to a hamstring injury sustained July 24. The rookie fourth-round will be in position to receive valuable reps if he's indeed able to return this week, with all of Christian McCaffrey (calf), Elijah Mitchell (hamstring) and Jordan Mason (hip) nursing injuries of their own. Friday's exhibition matchup against the Raiders represents Guerendo's last chance to log game reps before the 49ers take on the Jets in Week 1 on Sept. 9.
