San Francisco 49ers running back Isaac Guerendo has been projected to be cut from the team in a recent ESPN 53-man roster prediction. With only Christian McCaffrey, Jordan James, and Kaelon Black confirmed as traditional running backs, Guerendo's chances have dwindled. After being a fourth-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, Guerendo had a promising rookie season but struggled to make an impact in 2025, not recording any offensive touches. He may receive another opportunity elsewhere if released, but he faces a challenging path to remain with the 49ers as preseason approaches.
