San Francisco 49ers running back Kaelon Black is expected to suit up in Week 2 against the Miami Dolphins. Black had previously been listed as questionable on the injury report due to a groin issue, but he participated as a limited participant in recent practice sessions. In Week 1, he recorded 65 rushing yards on 14 carries against the Los Angeles Rams. His role may vary as he serves in a backup position to Christian McCaffrey, who has an injury history contributing to Black's potential fantasy value.
