49ers running back Jordan Mason hadn’t had 28 carries in any game since high school. No 49ers running back had that many carries since at least 2017.
Via NFL Research, the 28 rushing attempts were the most by any 49ers player since Kyle Shanahan became the head coach seven years ago.
McCaffrey had 26 attempts in December 2022, during a 21-13 win over the Seahawks.
That night, McCaffrey had 108 rushing yards. Tonight, Mason had 147, averaging 5.25 yards per carry.
It’s unclear when McCaffrey will be back. If he’s not ready for a full workload when the time comes, Mason has shown he can help carry the load.
