Kyle Juszczyk Fantasy

The San Francisco 49ers have exercised fullback Kyle Juszczyk's contract options for 2023 through 2025, keeping him with the team for the next four years, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Undoubtedly the league's best fullback (he's the FB1 in fantasy for each of the last seven seasons), Juszczyk will earn $3.775 million this coming year and is guaranteed an additional $1.25 million in 2023. In 2021, he posted 318 yards and a touchdown. His ability to create plays via blocking and catching is instrumental in San Francisco's strong offense.

San Francisco 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk carried once for a six-yard touchdown and caught another six-yard pass to finish with 12 total scrimmage yards against the Atlanta Falcons during a 31-13 Week 15 win. The 49ers veteran fullback converted his lone carry into a touchdown, showing why it's so difficult to defend Kyle Shanahan's run-centric hybrid West Coast offensive scheme. Juszczyk does not hold any fantasy value due to his position, but he will continue to be used situationally as a receiver or ball carrier moving forward.

San Francisco 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk caught both of his targets for 14 receiving yards during a 31-17 Week 9 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. Juszczyk was not involved in the rushing attack in Week 9 due to the game script favoring a pass-heavy approach to play catch-up against a short-handed Cardinals offense. Garoppolo was continuously pressured and sacked five times, which is why Juszczyk hardly saw any usage other than a couple of short-distance catches for a total of 14 yards. As a result, he is not relevant in fantasy formats and should be kept on league waiver wires.
