49ers trade RB Jeff Wilson Jr. to Dolphins

The San Francisco 49ers have traded running back Jeff Wilson Jr. to the Miami Dolphins for a fifth-round pick

Records 80 all-purpose yards in win Mostert rushed 14 times for 64 yards, brought in his only target for three yards and returned one kickoff for 13 yards in the Dolphins' 31-27 win over the Lions on Sunday.

Impact Mostert put together an efficient effort on the ground that saw him average 4.6 yards per tote, and the fact his long gain was just 13 yards underscores the fact he consistently churned out solid gains. However, the veteran back was less involved in the passing game than might have been expected following a season-high four-catch tally in Week 7, and his rushing opportunities may have been somewhat capped by the Dolphins falling into an early 14-0 hole they eventually crawled out of. Mostert does have at least 64 rush yards in four of the last five games, however, a favorable trend he'll hope to extend against the Bears' vulnerable run defense in a Week 9 road matchup.

No designation for Week 8 Mostert (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Lions, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Even though Mostert moved from full participation in practice Wednesday to limited activity Thursday and Friday, his lack of a designation heading into the weekend seemingly implies that his reps were capped mainly for maintenance purposes. Coming off a Week 7 outing against the Steelers in which he turned a season-high 21 touches into 109 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown, Mostert profiles as a strong fantasy option in his matchup with a Lions defense that has surrendered 412.2 yards and 32.3 points per game, the worst marks in the NFL by a fair margin.

Dolphins hoping to get running game going against Lions

The Miami Dolphins know their offense needs more balance if they want to take a big step forward this season

Logs limited practice Thursday Mostert (knee) was limited at practice Thursday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Mostert practiced fully Wednesday, so his addition to the Dolphins' Week 8 injury report is notable. That said, Mostert has been managing a knee issue the last couple of weeks, so his listed limitations Thursday may be maintenance-related rather than indicative of a setback. Friday's final practice report should add some clarity with regard to the running back's status for Sunday's game against the Lions.

Produces 109 yards plus TD Mostert rushed 16 times for 79 yards and caught four of five targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 16-10 win over the Steelers.

Impact Mostert was arguably Miami's best offensive player Sunday, going for over 100 combined yards while scoring the team's only touchdown. The veteran tailback has clearly pulled away from the struggling Chase Edmonds (seven carries for 17 yards) as the lead back, and he has now produced two games with at least 100 yards and a touchdown over the last three weeks. Mostert is looking like a must-start fantasy asset heading into a favorable matchup against Detroit next Sunday.

Ready for Week 7 Mostert (knee) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Mike Masala of USA Today reports.

Impact Mostert has a long history of knee injuries, including the past two weeks when his reps were capped at times. This week, he followed up Wednesday's limited practice with back-to-back full sessions, thereby clearing him for active status for a seventh consecutive contest to begin the campaign. While he had just six touches in the season opener, Mostert has since gotten the larger share of backfield work over teammate Chase Edmonds, averaging 14.6 touches for 68.2 yards from scrimmage per game while scoring one TD over the last five contests.

Returns to full practice Mostert (knee) practiced fully Thursday, South Florida Sun Sentinel writer David Furones reports.

Impact With his return to full practice Mostert should be able to start and take on his usual workload against Pittsburgh on Sunday night. Over his last three outings, Mostert has logged a total of 47 carries, while Chase Edmonds has recorded just eight carries in that span.

Tagovailoa returns as Dolphins seek turnaround vs Steelers

With Tua Tagovailoa back as the starter the Dolphins will hope to end a three-game losing streak when they host the Steelers on Sunday night

Limited in practice Mostert (knee) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Mostert played through the knee injury in a 24-16 loss to Minnesota on Sunday, taking 15 touches for 48 yards while playing 62 percent of snaps on offense. He's played more than half the snaps in five straight games and more than 60 percent in three in a row, but his only big outing from a fantasy standpoint came in a blowout loss to the Jets a couple weeks ago. Assuming no problems with the knee, Mostert figures to again lead Miami's rushing attack, this time with Tua Tagovailoa back under center to direct the offense.

Modest production in loss Mostert rushed 14 times for 49 yards and secured one of two targets for minus-1 yard in the Dolphins' 24-16 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.

Impact The veteran back shook off the knee issue he'd dealt with during the week as expected, but Mostert ultimately found the going against the Vikings run defense tough more often than not. Game script eventually turned against Mostert once the Dolphins fell behind 16-3 early in the fourth quarter. However, Mostert continued to function as the clear lead back for Miami, an encouraging trend that's expected to continue in a Week 7 home Sunday night matchup against the Steelers.

Suiting up Sunday Mostert (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Impact Mostert was tending to the knee injury in the aftermath of carrying 18 times for a season-high 113 yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins' Week 5 loss to the Jets, but his ability to practice on a limited basis Thursday and Friday looks like it was enough to convince Miami to keep him active for Week 6. At this point, Mostert appears to have asserted himself as the top option out of the Miami backfield, but he could struggle to replicate the 18 carries he saw a week ago if the underdog Dolphins find themselves trailing early against Minnesota. Third-string quarterback Skylar Thompson will be making his first career start Sunday, and his presence under center could make it difficult for the Dolphins to string together long drives.

Listed as questionable, expects to play Mostert (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Vikings after logging limited practices Thursday and Friday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald relays that the running back said he'd play this weekend, but Mostert's status will still be worth verifying ahead of Sunday's 1:00 ET kickoff. As long as he's active, look for Mostert to continue to lead the Dolphins' rushing attack in Week 6, after carrying 18 times for 113 yards and a touchdown to go along with one catch for nine yards in Miami's Week 5 loss to the Jets.

Logs limited practice Mostert (knee) returned to a limited practice Thursday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Mostert didn't practice Wednesday, but the running back's return to the field Thursday has him trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's game against the Vikings. Per Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald, Mostert indicated that his knee is fine and that he plans to play this weekend, a notion that could be solidified Friday if he heads into the weekend minus a Week 6 injury designation.

Impact Mostert sat out Wednesday's session, but his return to practice a day later is a positive indicator regarding his availability for Sunday's game against the Vikings. Thursday's upcoming injury report will clarify the running back's official participation level.

Misses practice Wednesday Mostert didn't practice Wednesday due to a knee injury, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Mostert was missing from practice after logging 46 of a possible 67 snaps on offense in this past Sunday's 40-17 loss to the Jets while carrying 18 times for 113 yards and a touchdown and catching one of his three targets for nine yards. What the running back is able to do at Thursday's practice should add a degree of clarity with regard to his chances of playing this weekend against the Vikings. If Mostert is limited at all or not available Week 6, Myles Gaskin and Chase Edmonds would be in line for added snaps and touches.
