The San Francisco 49ers placed running back Elijah Mitchell (hamstring) on Injured Reserve on Tuesday, and his 2024 season is over. Mitchell, who was projected as the team's RB2, has dealt with injury problems throughout his career, having never played more than 11 games in a year. Jordan Mason is now expected to be the 49ers' RB2 behind Christian McCaffrey (calf) with Mitchell sidelined. Rookie Isaac Guerendo and Patrick Taylor Jr. will also see an uptick in playing time behind McCaffrey and Mason with Mitchell now done for the year.

Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford (hamstring) was ruled out for Week 8 according to Scott Petrak of The Chronicle Telegram. Ford was able to return to practice on Friday after sitting out on Wednesday and Thursday but did not progress enough to suit up this weekend. As a result, Ford will now set his sights on returning to action in Week 9 against the Los Angeles Chargers. As a result, fantasy managers should expect Nick Chubb to operate as the lead runner against the Baltimore Ravens with Pierre Strong Jr. serving as the No.2 option.
