There was no corresponding move announced, presumably because the spot is being given to McCaffrey.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor joined the 49ers in the offseason and primarily contributed on special teams. He wound up seeing some action on offense while RB Jordan Mason dealt with a shoulder injury. Taylor posted seven carries for 25 yards and one catch for 12 yards on 21 snaps in Weeks 6 and 8.<\/p>\n<p>McCaffrey\u2019s return lessens the need for RB depth in San Francisco. He\u2019ll be backed up by Mason and rookie RB Isaac Guerendo.<\/p>\n<p>It wouldn\u2019t be a surprise to see Taylor re-sign with the 49ers\u2019 practice squad to work as internal depth since they don\u2019t carry an RB on that portion of their roster.<\/p>\n<p>The roster move to officially activate McCaffrey will likely occur Saturday before the 49ers visit the Buccaneers in Tampa Bay. McCaffrey has missed the entire season with Achilles tendinitis. His practice window was opened Monday and he is expected to play in Week 10.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/ninerswire.usatoday.com\/2024\/11\/08\/49ers-waive-rb-pave-way-for-christian-mccaffrey-return\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The San Francisco 49ers are officially gearing up for the return of running back Christian McCaffrey.
