Hasty (ankle) was activated off of injured reserve Saturday and will be available to play in Sunday's contest against the Colts, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hasty has been sidelined since suffering a high-ankle sprain against the Eagles in Week 2. He was designated to return off IR ahead of the 49ers' first Week 7 practice Monday, and now, he has officially been activated to the 53-man roster. The 25-year-old should step back into his change-of-pace role behind Elijah Mitchell and Trey Sermon on Sunday.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan said Hasty (ankle) will be activated from injured reserve prior to the 49ers' game Sunday against the Colts, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Coming out of a Week 6 bye, the 49ers designated Hasty to return from IR ahead of their first Week 7 practice Monday. With Shanahan noting that Hasty incurred no setbacks with his sprained ankle throughout the week of practice, the 25-year-old should be ready to step back into a change-of-pace role Sunday behind Elijah Mitchell and Trey Sermon, the 49ers' top two options on the ground. Expect an official roster move to be made no later Saturday.

Hasty (ankle) is participating in Friday's practice, and he's eligible to be removed from IR before Sunday's game against the Colts, Cam Inman of the San Jose Mercury, East Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

If Hasty looks good in practice, he could re-enter San Francisco's running back rotation as soon as Sunday. Based on his usage prior to his IR stint, Hasty will likely work as the No. 2 option behind Elijah Mitchell and ahead of Trey Sermon once he's cleared to return. Hasty will need to be officially removed from IR before he can suit up, though as this point, it's almost a foregone conclusion that he'll be back at some point before the 21-day activation window expires.

The 49ers designated Hasty (ankle) to return from injured reserve Monday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hasty had nine touches for 59 yards before suffering a high-ankle sprain during San Francisco's second game of the season. The 49ers backfield has been decimated by injuries this year, but they are coming off their bye week, which may have allowed them to finally get their running back room healthy. Hasty will have a 21-day period to be added to the active roster, but if he isn't, he will stay on IR for the rest of the season.

Hasty (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

This was to be expected given Hasty suffered a high-ankle sprain, which generally entails a multi-week recovery timetable. The 49ers are banged up at running back with Hasty, Jeff Wilson (knee) and Raheem Mostert (knee) all unavailable while Elijah Mitchell (shoulder) is considered highly doubtful. The carnage leaves Trey Sermon at the top of the depth chart with recent signees Jacques Patrick and Trenton Cannon as backups.

The injury Hasty suffered Sunday against the Eagles was a high-ankle sprain which coach Kyle Shanahan said will keep him "out for awhile," Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

High-ankle sprains normally entail multi-week recovery timelines, so Hasty can be ruled out of Sunday's game against the Packers and may need to miss additional time beyond that as well. Fourth-stringer Trenton Cannon is the only healthy running back left on San Francisco's roster, but the extent of the injuries sustained by rookies Elijah Mitchell (shoulder) and Trey Sermon (concussion) has yet to be determined.

Hasty hurt his ankle during Sunday's game at Philadelphia, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

EDGE Analysis

One week after losing starting running back Raheem Mostert for the season with a knee injury, the entire 49ers backfield got banged up in some way Sunday. Hasty himself had nine touches for 59 yards from scrimmage before his departure in the fourth quarter. Meanwhile, new starter Elijah Mitchell notched 19 touches for 53 total yards while tending to a shoulder injury, and Trey Sermon suffered a concussion following the first potential carry of his career, which was nullified because of an Eagles penalty.

Hasty is active alongside rookies Elijah Mitchell and Trey Sermon for Sunday's contest at Philadelphia.

EDGE Analysis

With Raheem Mostert out for the season due to a knee injury suffered Week 1, Hasty likely will be the 49ers' No. 2 RB moving forward behind the expected lead ballcarrier Mitchell. After Mostert went down last Sunday in Detroit, Mitchell took over and had 19 carries for 104 yards and one touchdown. Meanwhile, Hasty received complementary work en route to two touches for 18 yards and one TD. Sermon, a 2021 third-round pick, will be available for the first game action of his career, but it remains to be seen how he'll mix in behind Mitchell and Hasty.

Hasty received one carry for three yards and a touchdown while corralling his lone target for 15 yards in Sunday's 41-33 win over Detroit.

EDGE Analysis

In a bit of a surprising roster move, both Hasty and Elijah Mitchell jumped ahead of 2021 third-round pick Trey Sermon on the depth chart right before kickoff Sunday. Starter Raheem Mostert went down early with a knee injury and never returned, but it was Mitchell (104 yards, TD) who took over as lead back, leaving Hasty in a reserve/receiving role. The running back situation currently is fluid in San Francisco given the uncertainty regarding Mostert's status for Week 2 against the Eagles, but Hasty doesn't appear to be in a position to start given how the touches were divvied up against the Lions.

Hasty is one of three San Francisco running backs active for Sunday's season opener in Detroit, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The fact that Hasty is dressing for Week 1 is probably less of a surprise than the fact that third-round rookie Trey Sermon is in street clothes, considering that Sermon had been operating as the No. 2 back for most of training camp and the preseason. It's unclear if Sermon's healthy scratch is specific to the 49ers' Week 1 game plan or something that will also carry over to future contests, but regardless, Hasty and sixth-round rookie Elijah Mitchell will be on hand as the reserve options behind Raheem Mostert for the opener. While Mostert is expected to dominate the snaps and touches among the San Francisco backs, Hasty and Mitchell are both expected to see some involvement on offense, especially if the game turns non-competitive in the second half. As an undrafted rookie last season, Hasty appeared in eight games and averaged 3.8 yards per carry and scored a touchdown on 39 totes.
