Gregg RosenthalHOST
Final news, Christian Kirk of the 49ers going to PUP list.
Gregg RosenthalHOST
Mike Williams, their first round pick from a year ago, and Isaac Guerendo to injured reserve, designated to return.
Gregg RosenthalHOST
And then they did cut Dejon Love, uh, from their roster.
Gregg RosenthalHOST
I thought he could make it.
Sterling BennettHOST
Still has 4-3 speed, can be a good receiver for you.
Sterling BennettHOST
So Grendo, in a roundabout way, makes the roster without doing anything to make the roster.
Sterling BennettHOST
Then also frees up a spot in case you want to elevate guys like Sincere McCormick or Kilo Herbert if they do get on the practice squad.
Sterling BennettHOST
following the waiver claim process.
Adam CopelandHOST
I will say the consistency we saw from Kaylon Black over the last couple of games should give you a bit of confidence in, in a different style of runner.
Adam CopelandHOST
But that said, like we've been f- we've been through this before with, uh, Isaac Guerendo, where we thought he was gonna be an explosive piece for them.
Derek PapaHOST
Yeah.
Adam CopelandHOST
And they never got comfortable with him, and he's never been able to stay on the field or find any level of consistency.
Sterling BennettHOST
But it's kind of that depth guy waiting in the wings.
Sterling BennettHOST
Maybe if Jordan Watkins, Jacob Cowling fail to be anything of kick returners or punt returners, Grendo may fall face first into a role on special teams if he does indeed return at some point this year.
Sterling BennettHOST
I also do have Sincere McCormick being brought back on the practice squad.
Sterling BennettHOST
Really impressed by him.
Sterling BennettHOST
I'm not going to say he's NFL caliber or going to make a splash at any point in time this year, but I think San Francisco may have their strongest running back room since 2019.
Sterling BennettHOST
This is better than last year for sure, and I think that three of these guys at least should be able to see the field at some point in time this year.
Sterling BennettHOST
And if Grendo gets on special teams, there's four of those guys out there.
Sterling BennettHOST
It's a really fun room.
Sam ShermanGUEST
E- even in the worst case scenario where, like, you think he's very overrated, he's very limited as a player, that could all be true.
Sam ShermanGUEST
Like, it's kind of like Isaac Guerendo rookie year-ish.
Pat KerraneHOST
Yeah.
Sam ShermanGUEST
Right? Where, like-
Arif HasanGUEST
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Luke BraunHOST
Chargers' Najee Harris, Xavier Legette, Isaac Guerendo-
Arif HasanGUEST
Mm
Luke BraunHOST
...
Sterling BennettHOST
And, you know, the Niners really have Christian McCaffrey, you know, Kalon Black, Jordan James, three, uh, great to operable running backs.
Sterling BennettHOST
Then they have Isaac Guerendo somewhere [chuckles] on the PUP list trying to work his way back.
Sterling BennettHOST
So, you know, they have a lot of good bodies, uh, in the running back room, and I think that, you know, for the first time in a long time, Shanahan will be able to use these guys at his own choosing.
Sterling BennettHOST
The question really comes down to when will that be and how often will it be? And I'm hoping it's a lot this year because, um, as we all know, you wanna spare Christian McCaffrey, hope to get him to the playoffs with less tread on his tires.
Christopher HarrisHOST
... 49er backup running back talk on the show, so let's just do it.
Christopher HarrisHOST
Let's talk Kalen Black, let's talk Jordan James, let's talk the ghost of Isaac Guerendo.
Jake CielyGUEST
[laughs] I think that's the best way to put it right now, is just it sounds like it is the ghost of Isaac Guerendo, is that we've had opportunities and it looked fun for short, brief spurts, but there's been other options, and they were talking up Jordan James this entire time, the excitement behind him, and it came down to the fact that we're still waiting for him to return.
Jake CielyGUEST
And it's really the testament of who's next up.
Jake CielyGUEST
And we've played this game before, where it's who's next up and then that person gets, like, one game in and doesn't end up being the right guy, and that's always the danger.
Kevin DernHOST
So maybe that gives you a leg up, um, or maybe that gives you impetus to make a trade.
Kevin DernHOST
[sniffs] At running back, um, obviously similar style offense, but looking at the 49ers, they've got a pretty crowded backfield with Isaac Guerendo, Zamir White, although I think Zamir White might have just been traded, uh, Sincere McCormick, and Khalil Herbert.
Kevin DernHOST
You know, I don't think any of those guys are making the roster.
Kevin DernHOST
Receiver, I've always appreciated the Colts' ability just to kind of have a decent room, top to bottom.
