Fantasy Impact:

Jalen Hurd would have been a tremendous addition to the 49ers beleaguered wide receiver corps. His ability to play both running back and wide receiver at a high level would have made him an exciting player to watch in Kyle Shanahan's offense. With Dante Pettis potentially on his way out of the Bay area, and Emmanuel Sanders a free agent, Hurd will look to lock up one of the top three receiver roles in 2020.
