As things stand, Isaac Guerendo is listed as questionable to face the Rams on Thursday night. However, there are signs that he could suit up in the Week 15 game. Guerendo did not participate in practice on Monday and Tuesday due to a foot sprain. However, he did partake in limited practice on Wednesday.

Guerendo appeared to pick up his injury in the fourth quarter of San Francisco's Week 14 win over the Chicago Bears. He exited and did not return. However, after the game, Guerendo said that his exit was “just precautionary,” and that he was feeling “great.”

Now, it remains to be seen whether Guerendo will play against the Rams on Thursday night. The Bears are already without Christian McCaffrey and Jordan Mason, and cannot really afford to lose another key member from their offensive backfield heading into Week 15.

How has Isaac Guerendo performed this season?

Guerendo has been impactful whenever the 49ers have asked him to deliver. The running back has racked up 324 yards and four touchdowns on 57 carries. He has also added 69 yards on seven receptions across 13 appearances this season. Guerendo had 15 carries for 78 yards and two scores, adding two catches for 50 yards in the 38-13 win over the Bears.

The 49ers (6-7) still have an outside chance of reaching the playoffs, but will need to win their remaining games to stay in contention for the postseason. They will face a tough challenge against the Rams in the opening Week 15 game.
