Head coach Kyle Shanahan acknowledged the urgency, stating, '[Taylor] was on our roster earlier this year before Christian came back. We will most likely have to look for another.' This indicates their pressing need for depth at RB given the injuries.
The loss of both McCaffrey and Mason has placed the 49ers in a tough position. Shanahan remarked, 'We have Guerendo, obviously, who will be up. We have Patrick here, who is on our practice squad, who will definitely be bumped up now.'
Shanahan emphasized the immediate changes, stating, 'Both running back will be placed on injured reserve, which means they will miss a minimum of four games starting in Week 14.' This highlights the severity of the injuries.
The potential resurgence of Jerick McKinnon was mentioned, noting his familiarity with the system: 'McKinnon knows the system well and could assimilate quickly,' adding another layer to the team's strategy moving forward.
