Matt Breida missed the 49ers' Week 14 game against the Broncos after re-aggravating an ankle injury he suffered the week prior against the Seahawks, and his status for Week 15 is currently up in the air.

Listed as questionable heading into Wednesday's practice, Breida is a 50-50 shot, at best, to play against the Seahawks, opening up the door for rookie Jeff Wilson Jr. again this weekend.
Rookie #49ers RB Jeff Wilson Jr. repeats what Jeff Wilson Sr. told him: "If you run hard, people don’t want to tackle you every play. People don’t want to make the hit. They look to the next guy to make the hit.”https://t.co/AcL5NTEwOA

And Wilson has taken advantage of his limited opportunities this season. L
With Matt Breida out for the first time this season, expect to see more of @WakeEmupJeff903.

Obviously, check the injury report leading up to the 4:05 p.m. EST kickoff and if Wilson fills in as the 49ers' No. 1 back again this weekend, he has enough upside to be locked into your semi-final lineup against a Seattle team that gives up the 14th most fantasy points to the RB position this season. At worst, he's a FLEX play that could help get you into your fantasy finals next week.
