Tyler Fulghum expressed confidence in the San Francisco 49ers as they prepare for their Week 15 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams.
In a positive development for the team, 49ers running back Isaac Guerendo will be active for the game despite dealing with a sprained foot. Although he was initially listed as questionable, sources confirmed that Guerendo “feels good.” In addition, linebacker Dre Greenlaw has been activated from the PUP list, marking his return from a torn Achilles sustained during last season’s Super Bowl.
Defensive end Nick Bosa is also returning after missing the last three games due to injuries to his left hip and oblique. The 49ers currently hold a record of 6-7 and are in a crucial position to secure a win to stay alive in the playoff race. Unfortunately, they will be without left tackle Trent Williams, safety Malik Mustapha, and guard Ben Bartch, who was placed on injured reserve due to a high ankle sprain.
Guerendo stepped into the starting running back role following injuries to key players like Christian McCaffrey and Elijah Mitchell. He made an impressive debut last week against the Chicago Bears, rushing for 78 yards and two touchdowns while also adding two receptions for 50 yards before exiting with his injury. His performance placed him in the 49ers’ record books, as he became the fourth player in franchise history to achieve over 100 scrimmage yards and score at least two touchdowns in his first start.
As the 49ers look to overcome injury setbacks and improve their standing, the return of key players like Guerendo and Greenlaw could reinvigorate the team’s playoff aspirations.
In summary, the 49ers face a critical game against the Rams with standout players returning from injury and rookie Guerendo hoping to maintain his momentum in the starting position. Their determination and the depth of the roster could lead to a turning point in the season.
