Marquez Valdes-Scantling 49ers' New Slot Receiver Amid Injuries?

Wednesday, October 15, 3:45 AM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling pulled in two of his three targets for 22 receiving yards in Week 6. While his stat line may not have been impressive, his utilization was notable. Even with Jauan Jennings (ankle, ribs) returning to action, Valdes-Scantling saw the third-highest snap share among San Francisco's wide receivers for the second straight week. Rather than get bumped down the depth chart, MVS held onto his role in the slot. Demarcus Robinson, who lined up out wide for 33 of his 40 routes in Week 5, ran a total of 10 routes upon Jennings' return on Sunday. With the returns of George Kittle (hamstring) and Ricky Pearsall (knee) imminent, Valdes-Scantlings' fantasy prospects aren't high, but he is worth monitoring given the 49ers' extensive injury issues this season.
