Earlier this offseason, 49ers second-year running back JaMycal Hasty looked like he wouldn’t make the cut, but that could now change heading into 2021.
Few undrafted rookies garnered as much excitement for the San Francisco 49ers in 2020 than former Baylor running back JaMycal Hasty, who epitomized the traditional scatback and figured to play an integral niche role in head coach Kyle Shanahan during his rookie season.
Despite failing to make the 53-man roster right out of the gate in 2020, thanks largely to an already-crowded running back room, the Niners nevertheless promoted Hasty to the active roster in late September, and Hasty would go on to contribute to Shanahan’s offense on the ground and through the air over the course of eight games.
