Here’s a suggestion for the rest of the fantasy football season: All San Francisco 49ers should come with a standing waiver claim that just kicks in automatically when the injury report comes out.
Elijah Mitchell had just taken over the Niners backfield after Raheem Mostert was lost for the season, but he’s banged up already after suffering a shoulder injury.
So are his backups JaMycal Hasty (high ankle sprain) and Trey Sermon (concussion), who also got hurt in Sunday’s game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Mitchell and/or Sermon could be ready, or Cannon could get the call.
