The Facts:
Following up on a
previous item. ... The San Francisco 49ers added another impediment to Lattimore's comeback when they drafted Carlos Hyde in the second round early this month. Lattimore did manage to clear one hurdle on Friday when he surprisingly took the field for rookie minicamp drills.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Returning from the second of two gruesome college knee injuries, Lattimore was originally expected to sit out minicamp with general soreness in both legs. The 49ers have cleared him to take handoffs and make basic cuts. Lattimore's next test will be taking hits in full-contact practices. Even assuming that goes well, with Frank Gore, Kendall Hunter -- and now Hyde -- competing for carries, Lattimore is facing long odds for a major role this season.
