It doesn’t appear as if San Francisco 49ers running back Jerick McKinnon can catch a break.
Well over a year after the 27 year old signed a four-year free-agent deal with the Niners, McKinnon still has yet to take a meaningful snap with his new team. And after tearing his ACL a year ago at this point before the regular season, McKinnon reportedly suffered yet another setback just ahead of San Francisco’s final preseason bout against the Los Angeles Chargers on Thursday night.
“Because the situation is up in the air, I’m not going to say a whole lot,” 49ers general manager John Lynch told KNBR 680’s Murph and Mac Show Wednesday morning (h/t 49ers Webzone).
