Fantasy Impact: Black is good to go after not experiencing any setbacks during pregame warmups for head coach Kyle Shanahan, offering another dynamic option alongside Christian McCaffrey out of the San Francisco backfield against the Dolphins Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: Pineiro has missed practice all week due to being under the weather, but the veteran kicker will be ready to go Sunday. Pineiro hit 2-of-3 field goals and all three of his PATs in Week 1.

Fantasy Impact: The 49ers will have their star fullback for Sunday's game against Miami. He won't have any fantasy relevance himself but should help open things up for RB Christian McCaffrey in this favorable matchup.

George Kittle (Achilles) will be good to go for Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins. (Source: San Francisco 49ers)
Fantasy Impact: As expected, Kittle carries no injury designation heading into the weekend and will be available to play against the Dolphins. It seems likely that he will continue to be limited in some capacity, though it looks like the 49ers are planning on ramping his workload up more and more each week moving forward.

Fantasy Impact: The veteran was able to return to practice in a full capacity on Thursday after being sidelined for injury management purposes on Wednesday. He should be a full go for Week 2 and will continue to play a big role for San Francisco's defense in a favorable matchup against the Dolphins.

Fantasy Impact: As expected, McCaffrey returns to being a full participant at practice on Thursday after being given Wednesday off as a veteran rest day. He should be good to go for Week 2 and is primed for a huge workload against the Dolphins, especially now that Kaelon Black (groin) has been added to the injury report for the 49ers.

Nick Bosa (rest/knee) was back at practice as a limited participant on Thursday. (Source: David Furones on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Bosa was able to practice on Thursday, but the team continued to limit his workload and he didn't practice in full. He should play without any restrictions in Week 2, however, barring any setbacks between now and then.

De'Zhaun Stribling (ankle) is expected to be sidelined for around ten weeks. (Source: Tom Pelissero on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: San Francisco placed their promising rookie on injured reserve earlier today due to an ankle injury that he suffered last week, and it is now being reported that he is expected to miss about ten weeks due to this injury. That makes him non-factor for fantasy purposes for the foreseeable future and primes both Deebo Samuel Sr. and Demarcus Robinson to see a lot more involvement in the 49ers' offense over the course of the season.

Jake Tonges (knee) is set to miss the remainder of the season after undergoing a procedure to repair a torn MCL. (Source: Adam Schefter on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Tonges suffered a knee injury in the team's season opener last week, and it has been officially diagnosed as a torn MCL. He had surgery to repair it and is set to miss the remainder of the season while he recovers. This is a significant hit to San Francisco's depth on offense, with the team now needing Luke Farrell to step up as the TE2 behind George Kittle, who himself is still getting back to form after a lengthy injury recovery this offseason.

Fantasy Impact: Hodge is being promoted to San Francisco's active roster after an impressive performance on special teams in the 49ers' season opener last week. This also helps shore up the team's depth at wide receiver after placing rookie De’Zhaun Stribling (ankle) on injured reserve. The veteran is unlikely to be relevant for fantasy purposes at any point, however.

The San Fransisco 49ers D/ST shut down the Rams offense on Thursday, allowing just seven points in their 27-7 rout of the Super Bowl favorites.
Fantasy Impact: The Niners defensive totals were modest, with one interception and a fumble recovery, but were held without a sack. They just kept the Rams from moving the ball while not racking up much in the “counting stats” category. It’s a good showing for the team, and a date with the Dolphins is on tap. They are a great DST option this week if available.

Demarcus Robinson caught two of three targets for 50 yards and a score in the 49ers' 27-7 win over the Rams on Thursday night.
Fantasy Impact: Robinson had a red zone target in this game as well, but failed to snag the short pass. His long touchdown saved his fantasy day, but it's worth asking: how many fantasy managers did it truly save?
Category: Game Recaps
Deebo Samuel Sr. caught six of seven targets for 48 yards and a touchdown in the 49ers' 27-7 win over the Rams on Thursday. He also carried the ball once for 12 yards.
Fantasy Impact: Samuel looks to have come back to his old role on the 49ers, lining up everywhere and getting the ball put in his hands to make plays. He even had over 70 kick return yards. Samuel just might be a draft-day steal if they are going to use him like this throughout the season.

Brock Purdy completed 25-of-34 passes for 205 yards, three touchdowns, and a pick in the 49ers' 27-7 win over the Rams on Thursday. He also ran five times for 29 yards.
Fantasy Impact: Purdy was great in this game aside from a couple of hiccups, namely the interception. However, he did what he needed to and got the Niners into scoring position and helped them take advantage of the several short fields they inherited. Purdy should be a solid asset moving forward for fantasy.

Mike Evans caught six of seven targets for 49 yards and a touchdown in the 49ers' 27-7 blowout win over the Rams on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact: Evans had a nice end zone fade touchdown over a Rams DB who was draped all over him, as well as plenty of third-down usage. He's looking like a potential draft-day steal if his momentum keeps up. This is especially true if De'Zhaun Stribling misses extended time with an ankle injury.

Fantasy Impact: Watkins is buried on the depth chart, so this isn't totally surprising. His absence should have little impact on those ahead of him in the pecking order.

49ers DT Alfred Collins tore patellar tendon in practice and is out for the season. (Source: Matt Maiocco on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: It is another brutal injury for the 49ers, even while they're in Australia. The depth on the defensive line takes a hit for San Francisco just two days before the start of the season.

Jon Weeks has been promoted to the Niners active roster. In a corresponding move, Brayden Willis has been released. (Source: Eric Branch on X)
Fantasy Impact: Weeks will provide some special teams depth and the exit of Willis implies the return of George Kittle.
