49ers | Raheem Mostert likely going on IR Mon Oct 19, 06:44 PM
San Francisco 49ers RB Raheem Mostert (ankle) suffered a high ankle sprain during the Week 6 game and likely will be placed on the Reserve/Injured list, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan.
| Footballguys view: Mostert has a high ankle sprain and those take quite a bit of time to heal properly. If he's on the IR list then Mostert will have to miss three weeks before he's eligible to return. The 49ers could turn to Jeff Wilson and JaMycal Hasty while Mostert is out. They also have Jerick McKinnon to serve as a big-play back in their 'hot hand' RBBC. |

| Footballguys view: Ravens v Steelers is always a hard-fought game. Having a back like Ingram out there to soften up the defense would greatly help. Gus Edwards and rookie J.K. Dobbins will get work as well when the Ravens want to hand the ball off. |
