Patrick Taylor Jr. Scores 49ers' Only Touchdown In Loss

Friday, August 14, 2:11 AM

San Francisco 49ers running back Patrick Taylor Jr. had an unimpressive showing in Thursday's 19-13 preseason loss to the Titans but came out of it with a touchdown. Taylor was targeted twice in the game and had two receptions for 13 yards but finished with negative yardage on the ground, handling five carries and netting -5 rushing yards. Taylor's longest run of the game was the one-yard plunge into the end zone for the 49ers' only touchdown. With Christian McCaffrey (soreness) the undisputed RB1, the rest of San Francisco's running backs derive their fantasy value from their handcuff potential. Despite his touchdown against Tennessee, Taylor does not appear to be a challenger for that role. His next chance to show what he can do will come against the Chargers on August 20.

Deuce Vaughn News

Broncos Add Deuce Vaughn to Their Practice Squad

Tuesday, September 9, 6:50 PM

The Denver Broncos are signing free-agent running back Deuce Vaughn to their practice squad on Tuesday, sources tell Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports. Vaughn, a former All-American at Kansas State and a sixth-round pick by the Dallas Cowboys in 2023, will give Denver additional backfield depth behind J.K. Dobbins, rookie RJ Harvey, Tyler Badie, and Jaleel McLaughlin. The 5-foot-6, 176-pounder will be a long shot to make any noise in Denver this year or ever in the NFL, given his small stature. In his two seasons with the Cowboys over the last two years, he handled only 40 carries for 110 yards (2.8 yards per tote) with no touchdowns. Vaughn caught 10 of his 12 targets for 58 yards in the passing game. Dallas cut Vaughn from their roster at the end of training camp in late August.
