Fantasy Impact:
The former eight overall pick and speed demon would be a great fit for the 49er's after they lost Emmanuel Sanders in free agency. Austin, now 30 years old, probably can't hit a 4.34 40-yard dash any longer, but his speed will stretch the field and his experience can help the 49er's young wide receiver corps anchored by Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk. Austin hasn't seen 100 targets in a season since 2016 with the Rams and probably wouldn't be on the fantasy radar, although his addition would be a boost for Samuel.
