Mason's 147-yard, 1-TD performance in 2024 opener shows handcuff upside if McCaffrey misses time.

Mason demonstrated significant upside in the 2024 opener when McCaffrey was a surprise game-day scratch, rushing for 147 yards and a touchdown. Mason's post-game comments suggested he knew all along he would start, essentially disclosing the Niners were intentionally misleading everyone on McCaffrey's true status, though he later walked those comments back. If McCaffrey misses time again, Mason could be a key handcuff, though it's unclear whether he would morph into a full bell cow.
