Positive signalUsage

Black's 43% snap share and 14 carries signal potential standalone flex value.

Black played 43.1% of offensive snaps in Week 1 win over Rams, carrying 14 times for 65 yards and catching one pass for five yards. The question is whether Kyle Shanahan will continue heavy usage or manage Christian McCaffrey's workload given McCaffrey had 450 touches last season including playoffs and experienced lower-body tightness in training camp. Black is the clear No. 2 running back in San Francisco and quite possibly the most indispensable handcuff in fantasy football.
