No touches on 13 snaps Guerendo (groin) suited up for Monday's season opener against the Jets but did not record a touch in the 32-19 win.

Impact Guerendo made the 49ers' 53-man roster but was battling a groin injury heading into Week 1. The fourth-round pick out of Louisville got the green light and would up logging 10 snaps on special teams and three on offense. Starter Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) did not suit up for this contest, affording fellow backup Jordan Mason (28/147/1) to go off against the Jets. Guerendo appears to be next in line should San Francisco need a runner behind CMC or Mason this season.

Set to suit up in season opener Guerendo (groin) practiced in full Saturday and doesn't have an injury designation for Monday's Week 1 contest against the Jets.

Impact Guerendo was a limited participant in each of San Francisco's first two practices of the week after missing all of last week due to a groin injury. He is in line to make his NFL debut Monday, though, after returning to a full practice session Saturday. Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) is listed as questionable for the opener against the Jets but has stated that he's definitely suiting up, so Guerendo will likely see limited work in the running game behind the star tailback and backup Jordan Mason.

Remains limited Guerendo (groin) remained limited in practice Friday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The rookie missed most of training camp with a hamstring injury and then hurt his groin in late August a week after returning to practice. With Christian McCaffrey (calf) on track to play and Guerendo having taken very few practice reps this summer, there's not much chance of Guerendo having a significant role Week 1 even if he ends up being healthy enough to play.

Opens week as limited participant Guerendo (groin) is practicing on a limited basis Thursday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact Guerendo spent the early portion of training camp sidelined due to a hamstring injury, and he then tweaked his groin after returning for San Francisco's preseason finale. The rookie fourth-round pick will have two more chances to upgrade to full participation in practice ahead of Monday's regular-season opener against the Jets. Meanwhile, top running back Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) will also be limited Thursday, though he's expected to be available Week 1.

Tweaks groin in practice Guerendo tweaked his groin Monday and won't practice this week, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact After missing training camp and most of the preseason with a hamstring injury, Guerendo returned for San Francisco's final exhibition and took 13 touches for 35 yards in a 24-24 tie with the Raiders. His depth chart standing seemingly improved despite all the missed time this summer, as long-time No. 2 running back Elijah Mitchell was placed on season-ending injured reserve due to a hamstring injury that will require surgery. Jordan Mason now figures to enter Week 1 as the No. 2 back behind Christian McCaffrey, leaving Guerendo to focus on kickoff returns for the time being. Shanahan said Guerendo could be back at practice as soon as next week, meaning the rookie isn't ruled out for a Week 1 matchup with the Jets on Monday Night Football.

Healthy amount of action Guerendo (hamstring) rushed 11 times for 32 yards and caught both of his targets for three yards in Friday's preseason tilt against Las Vegas.

Impact Guerendo returned from a hamstring injury that cost the fourth-round pick two games of action this exhibition season. The Louisville product didn't post gaudy rushing numbers in his 49ers debut, but he had an electric kickoff return of 93 yards that fell just short of pay dirt. Guerendo currently sits behind veteran backups Elijah Mitchell and Jordan Mason on the depth chart, but the 6-foot, 221-pound rookie has the physical tools to profile as a fantasy prospect should he survive the impending roster cuts ahead the Sep. 27 deadline.

Returning to practice Guerendo (hamstring) will retake the practice field Tuesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Guerendo's hamstring injury has sidelined him more than three weeks, but coach Kyle Shanahan said he could have a chance to make his preseason debut Friday versus the Raiders. Given that all of Christian McCaffrey (calf), Elijah Mitchell (hamstring) and Jordan Mason (hip) are currently nicked up, Guerendo seems in line to immediately face an opportunity for valuable reps in his return to the practice field. The rookie fourth-round pick seems to be competing with Mitchell, Mason, Patrick Taylor and Cody Schrader for a depth role behind McCaffrey.

Hopeful to practice this week Coach Kyle Shanahan said Sunday he's "hopeful" Guerendo (hamstring) will be able to resume practicing this week and potentially play in Friday's preseason finale against the Raider...

Impact Guerendo has missed more than three weeks of training camp, including San Francisco's first two preseason games, due to a hamstring injury sustained July 24. The rookie fourth-round will be in position to receive valuable reps if he's indeed able to return this week, with all of Christian McCaffrey (calf), Elijah Mitchell (hamstring) and Jordan Mason (hip) nursing injuries of their own. Friday's exhibition matchup against the Raiders represents Guerendo's last chance to log game reps before the 49ers take on the Jets in Week 1 on Sept. 09.

AUGUST 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Slated to miss time Guerendo is expected to be sidelined multiple weeks due to the hamstring injury he sustained last week, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Based on Schefter's report, it seems likely that the rookie fourth-rounder will be unavailable for the 49ers' preseason opener, at a minimum. Once he's back in the mix, Guerendo will compete with Jordan Mason, Patrick Taylor and Cody Schrader for backfield slotting behind Christian McCaffrey and Elijah Mitchell.

Injures hamstring Guerendo (hamstring) departed Wednesday's training camp practice early, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Guerendo suffered an injury of undisclosed severity on the first day of camp, with coach Kyle Shanahan saying the team will need to evaluate his status further, per Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site. That constitutes a tough start for the rookie speedster, who is working to carve out a role behind Christian McCaffrey and Elijah Mitchell. Guerendo dealt with recurring soft-tissue injuries in college, so his recovery will warrant close monitoring.
