The San Francisco 49ers have injury concerns at the running back spot with the 2018 season approaching.
According to Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area, the 49ers announced running back Jerick McKinnon will undergo an MRI on his right knee. That comes after Maiocco noted McKinnon grabbed his right knee area and was seen hobbling before sitting out the rest of Sunday’s practice.
As a member of the Minnesota Vikings, the Georgia Southern product missed only one contest the last three seasons.
He impressed as a rookie in 2014 with 538 rushing yards in 11 games and appeared well on his way to becoming an impact runner in the NFL.
