The biggest question mark for the 49ers entering their Monday night showdown: What will San Francisco’s running back group look like?
The 49ers seem quite thankful that they’re playing on Monday night this week, giving star running back Christian McCaffrey one extra day to rest up the oblique injury he picked up in the Week 6 loss to the Browns.
But there is still no guarantee that McCaffrey will play on Monday, and head coach Kyle Shanahan isn’t letting on which backup he’ll lean on more: Elijah Mitchell or Jordan Mason.
