From the article

Second-year running back Jordan James (ribs) is feeling better after Kaelon Black's preseason performance. James is back at practice. During OTAs, it was James, not Black, who was getting the reps with the starters when Christian McCaffrey would have an off day. James will look to take back the RB2 role from Black in a competition that will likely last into the season.

Black's preseason performance earned him RB2 competition, but James held starter reps in OTAs.

Second-year RB Kaelon Black earned preseason reps and is competing with Jordan James for the RB2 role. However, during OTAs, James was the one receiving starter reps when Christian McCaffrey had off days, indicating Black may be in a secondary position in the depth chart hierarchy. The source frames this as an ongoing competition that will likely extend into the season.
