Will get surgery on shoulder
Taylor will undergo season-ending surgery to repair a fracture in his shoulder, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Taylor suffered the injury during the 49ers' preseason game against the Raiders. He was already slated to miss the entire 2025 season after being placed on injured reserve, and the 27-year-old running back will aim to return for the 2026 campaign once he's fully recovered from the procedure.

Taylor handled the most carries (32) over his three-year tenure with Green Bay in 2023 while backing up Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon. This resulted in a new high-water mark for Taylor in production (141 yards from scrimmage), while averaging a healthy 4.4 yards per carry. The Memphis product signed on with San Francisco this offseason to compete for a backup/special teams role behind star running back Christian McCaffrey.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Next man up with Guerendo hurt
Taylor will likely take on a lead role in Week 16, as Isaac Guerendo is expected to miss Sunday's game against the Dolphins due to a hamstring injury, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Taylor scored a fourth-quarter touchdown in Week 14 after Guerendo exited due to a foot injury. Guerendo recovered in time to suit up Week 15, dominating backfield opportunities while Taylor was limited to just three offensive snaps. With Guerendo set to be sidelined, Taylor appears to be the next man up, though Israel Abanikanda's also on the roster and Ke'Shawn Vaughn could be elevated from the practice squad.
