The 49ers have listed Elijah Mitchell as doubtful for the game Sunday night versus the Packers, Nick Wagoner of ESPN reports. The 49ers have been devastated with injuries at the running back position since starter Raheem Mostert went down after Week 1 with a knee injury. Mitchell may be listed as doubtful, but he is not expected to play due to a shoulder injury.
The good news is that Trey Sermon has recovered from his concussion and is expected to start in the backfield for the 49ers. Head coach Kyle Shanahan has made quite the name for himself but seemingly turning average RBs into monster performers with his offensive schemes.
