49ers waive RB Jarryd Hayne

The San Francisco 49ers have released running back Jarryd Hayne. They have promoted Kendall Gaskins from their practice squad. Even with Carlos Hyde injured, Hayne was expendable.

Fantasy Analysis:

Hayne was a fan favorite to start the season but his star was quickly extinguished. He lost his return job and has been pretty much useless as a running back. Mike Davis will be the starter for the 49ers in the next few weeks. Hyde has a stress fracture in his foot and Reggie Bush is forever hurt and well past his prime.
