Tackle by Noah Sewell on Jordan Mason cited in Week 1 fine discussions; Mason is the referenced runner.

Jordan Mason earned a prominent role as a trusted back in San Francisco, highlighted by his burst and goal-line presence as the 49ers explore a stable, explosive rushing attack against the Falcons, with Mason projecting for solid workload reliability.

Mason’s workload hints at a potential committee dynamic in SF’s backfield when the top backs are healthy. Early in the year, Mason operated in light of the more dominant touches for the main backs, offering a speculative upside in deeper leagues if the situation devolves into a shared role again.

Mason dominated the Green Bay backfield with explosive bursts and a clear role as the down-and-distance and close-game option, signaling a potential weekly starter while the offense stabilizes.

Mason is referenced as a potential heavier workload option in the running game, with the discussion exploring how a more dynamic run attack could support McCarthy’s development and reduce early wear-and-tear on the rookie.
