Who Should I Start? Jeff Wilson Jr. or Jashaun Corbin

Running back Jeff Wilson Jr. scored the 49ers' lone touchdown in the team's 22-19 win over the Las Vegas Raiders on Saturday. It was Wilson's first game back with his former team after having spent the last three seasons with the Dolphins. The 29-year-old signed a one-year deal with the Niners earlier this week after Ameer Abdullah (ribs) was placed on injured reserve. Wilson finished the game with just 16 yards on the ground, but his eight rushing attempts were second-most on the team. He also had another 16 yards on his sole reception of the game. Wilson will have one more chance to jockey for placement on the depth chart before the regular season. The 49ers' final preseason game is August 23 against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Per the team, the Atlanta Falcons have signed free-agent running back Jashaun Corbin to an undisclosed contract. Running back Jase McClellan was released in a corresponding move. The 24-year-old got some run with the New York Giants in 2023 but was waived last offseason and did not find work in the NFL last year. Corbin found his way to the UFL as a part of the San Antonio Brahmas and led the league in rushing in 2025. In addition to 97 carries for 514 yards and four touchdowns on the ground, he chipped in another 18 receptions for 138 yards through the air, finishing with the third-most all-purpose yards in the UFL. Atlanta has no immediate need for a running back, but they may utilize Corbin on special teams, as he also has experience in the return game.
