Surprise inactive Week 1 Sermon (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Lions, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact After the 49ers invested a third-round selection into him during this year's draft, Sermon not only looked on track to be a regular member of the team's weekly backfield mix, but perhaps a threat to displace Raheem Mostert as the No. 1 option. Even after a strong preseason, however, Sermon will surprisingly find himself in street clothes for Week 1. Behind Mostert, the 49ers will have JaMycal Hasty and Elijah Mitchell active in reserve.

Productive in preseason finale Sermon rushed seven times for 37 yards in Sunday's 34-10 preseason win over the Raiders.

Impact Sermon saw teammate Raheem Mostert get all the tailback touches on San Francisco's first drive before getting involved himself on the second. The rookie once again looked good, as did most of the Niners' ball-carriers, finishing with 242 rushing yards as a team. Heading into his first regular season, Sermon should be a strong option alongside Mostert in arguably the league's best rushing scheme.

Back at practice Sermon (ankle) took part in practice Wednesday, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Sermon sat out the team's preseason contest Sunday versus the Chargers while tending to the ankle issue, but he looks to be in good physical condition a few days later. Given his absence from the last preseason contest, there's a chance Sermon is part of the 49ers' backfield mix for the preseason finale Sunday against the Raiders to get him some sort of a tuneup ahead of the regular season.

Tending to ankle issue Sermon won't suit up Sunday at the Chargers due to an ankle injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The 2021 third-rounder made a surprise appearance on the 49ers' list of players "not expected to play," but an injury and not a coach's decision is forcing the team's hand. Sermon will be unavailable to the backfield along with Raheem Mostert and Elijah Mitchell (hip), meaning San Francisco will trot out Wayne Gallman, JaMycal Hasty, Kyle Juszczyk and Josh Hokit at running back.

No go Sunday Sermon isn't in line to play in Sunday's preseason contest at the Chargers, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Sermon will join starting running back Raheem Mostert and fellow rookie Elijah Mitchell (hip) on the sideline. With the trio unavailable, San Francisco's backfield has been whittled down to Wayne Gallman, JaMycal Hasty, Kyle Juszczyk and Josh Hokit for preseason Week 2.

Mixing in with starters already Sermon appears to be "1B to Raheem Mostert's 1A" in the San Francisco backfield, according to Tim Kawakami of The Athletic.

Impact Mostert averaged 13 carries and two receptions in eight starts last season, so there's room for another runner to make an impact even if the speedy 29-year-old keeps his starting job and stays healthy. Sermon already got some work with the first-team offense during the 49ers' offseason program and is now continuing that at training camp, while fellow back Jeff Wilson (knee) remains in danger of missing the first half of the upcoming season. Wayne Gallman is the lone veteran behind Mostert in the San Francisco backfield, with the other options being 2020 UDFA JaMycal Hasty and 2021 UDFA Elijah Mitchell.

Impact Sermon still has Raheem Mostert (knee) and Wayne Gallman to contend with for reps out of the gate, but his competition thinned a bit after Jeff Wilson was forced to undergo surgery to repair a torn meniscus in late May that will keep him out for 4-to-6 months. He should be in the mix for carries come Week 1 as a result, though training camp figures to be a determining factor in how expansive his role is initially.

Injury opens up opportunity With Jeff Wilson (knee) being ruled out 4-to-6 months, Sermon could jump up the depth chart during training camp.

Impact Raheem Mostert and Wilson were assumed to be the 1A/1B combo Shanahan would deploy in 2021, but the news of the latter's surgery opens the door for Sermon to grasp a larger role in this potent offense. The third-round pick has a large frame (6-foot, 215 pounds) and surprising agility for a back his size. If he can secure the backup role behind a fragile starter in Mostert, Sermon could burst onto the fantasy scene if his production in the SEC translates well into the NFL. Today's news certainly raises the back's stock heading into training camp and early fantasy drafts.
