49ers RB Kaelon Black limited in practice ahead of Dolphins game

Summary

The San Francisco 49ers announced that rookie running back Kaelon Black appeared on the injury report ahead of their Week 2 game against the Miami Dolphins. Black was listed as a limited participant due to a groin injury, a surprise given he was not on the report the previous day. Head coach Kyle Shanahan indicated the limitation is a precautionary measure as the team has had a week off since their 27-7 victory over the Los Angeles Rams. Black had a notable performance in the opening game, rushing 14 times for 65 yards and out-carrying star running back Christian McCaffrey. His situation will be monitored closely as game day approaches.
