Summary

Matt Maiocco and Jennifer Lee Chan discuss who can replace rookie running back Isaac Guerendo's production if he can't overcome his sprained foot on a short week.

Later, Matt and Greg Papa discuss how the 49ers' adjust their game plans and practice schedules on a short week and the possibility of linebacker Dre Greenlaw making his 2024 season debut in Week 15 vs. the Rams.
