San Francisco 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk hauled in two of his three targets for 40 yards in the team's Week 1 win over the Jets. Juszczyk was on the field for 40 snaps and ran 17 routes. The versatile back made the most of his three targets in the absence of Christian McCaffrey. However, he did not see any carries out of the backfield. Despite being a fullback, Juszczyk operates as a second tight end in a lot of ways. Until he sees more targets, though, he is not a fantasy-relevant player. He's a great weapon for a loaded 49ers offense and creates mismatches on the field but he just doesn't get the volume necessary for fantasy purposes.

San Francisco 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk admits that he was "hurt" when the team came to him this offseason and asked him to take a pay cut after just completing his seventh Pro Bowl campaign with the organization. With so many other highly paid players on the team and several others in line for big pay days, the 49ers' front office made some cost-cutting moves in the offseason, including releasing defensive tackle Arik Armstead after he declined to take a pay cut. Juszczyk accepted his pay cut and remains the highest-paid fullback in the league at more than $4.5 million per season. "No knocks on other fullbacks in the league, but I'm the best fullback in the league," Juszczyk said. The 33-year-old will once again have a key blocking role for the best running back in the league in 2024 in Christian McCaffrey.

San Francisco 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk agreed to a restructured contract on Wednesday, according to his agent. The move clears roughly $1.75 million in cap space for the organization. The 32-year-old has been named to eight consecutive Pro Bowl rosters, and he earned his first All-Pro selection in 2023. Fullbacks are a dying breed in the NFL, yet Juszczyk is considered a valuable piece of the high-powered Niners offense, and he will remain the highest-paid player at the position under his new deal. In 11 NFL seasons, he has rushed 62 times for 221 yards and five touchdowns and hauled in 262 passes for 2,464 receiving yards and 16 scores.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud (rib) and fullback Kyle Juszczyk (illness) are active for Week 18 versus the Los Angeles Rams. Both players had been listed as questionable. McCloud was limited in practice all week long while Juszczyk was a late addition on Saturday. Fantasy managers shouldn't rely on either player this Sunday, though McCloud could sneak onto the fantasy radar if the 49ers limit snaps for Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel.
