Kyle Juszczyk Status
rotoWire
Juszczyk finished the 2022 regular season with 26 rushing yards and a touchdown and 200 receiving yards and another score across 16 games.
What it means:
Juszczyk's production for the 49ers in 2022 earned the fullback his seventh-straight trip to the Pro Bowl. The 31-year-old did see a small dip in usage, logging 12 fewer touches compared to last year. This had less to do with a decline in Juice's offensive skills, and more to do with the 49ers having a plethora of offensive weapons this season. Juszczyk is under contract with San Francisco through 2025, providing immense value to his team with minimal value to fantasy managers.
rotoWire
Juszczyk recorded two receptions for seven yards on two targets in Sunday's 35-7 win over the Buccaneers.
What it means:
The fullback took on a season-high 68 percent share in the victory and drew multiple targets for the third game in a row. With the 49ers set to play without jack-of-all-trades wideout Deebo Samuel for at least the next two games, Juszczyk could indirectly absorb some of Samuel's vacated snaps and touches. Tight end George Kittle and wideouts Brandon Aiyuk and Jauan Jennings are still more likely than Juszczyk to be consistent producers in the passing game in Samuel's absence.
rotoWire
Juszczyk recorded two receptions for two yards while playing 30 of the 49ers' 70 snaps on offense in Sunday's 13-0 win over the Saints.
What it means:
Though he wasn't able to do much with his pair of catches, Juszczyk was at least able to end a two-game drought without a target. The 31-year-old continues to enjoy fairly steady usage relative to most fullbacks around the league, but he doesn't get enough touches on a weekly basis to attract much interest even in deeper fantasy formats.
rotoWire
Juszczyk (finger) logged a full practice session Wednesday.
What it means:
Juszczyk suffered a finger injury Week 7 against the Chiefs and was forced to sit out a Week 8 win over the Rams. However, the 49ers' Week 9 bye gave the fullback time to get healthy, and he appears on track to return to action against the Chargers on Sunday night.
rotoWire
Juszczyk (finger) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Rams, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
What it means:
As expected, Juszczyk won't play Sunday after undergoing surgery to repair a broken finger on his right hand earlier in the week. While the fullback isn't a prolific producer, his blocking prowess will certainly be missed during a divisional showdown against Los Angeles.
rotoWire
Juszczyk underwent surgery on his broken right finger Monday and probably won't play against the Rams this coming Sunday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
What it means:
Juszczyk broke his finger in Sunday's loss to the Chiefs, but he still managed to return and finish out the remainder of this contest. The 31-year-old fullback has caught 11 of his 15 targets for 153 yards and recorded three rushes for 10 yards and a touchdown this season, though his biggest impact has come as a blocker in the 49ers' running game. Juszczyk's participation in practice Wednesday should shed more light on his availability against the Rams on Sunday.
