James' three appearances and zero touches in 2025 leave him behind Kaelon Black for No. 2 role.
Jordan JamesRB
James, the No. 147 overall pick from last year's draft, was rarely active in 2025, making just three appearances and failing to notch an offensive touch. He is competing with third-round rookie Kaelon Black for the No. 2 running back role. While he theoretically has more experience under Shanahan than Black, Black's superior draft capital gives him the edge. The source notes this is not a particularly interesting battle behind McCaffrey.
