Rourke led Indiana's rival. The 49ers took him as a redshirt option, and Mac Jones will be traded by midseason. If the 49ers fall apart, which is possible given the injury history associated with multiple older players, Rourke could find himself in cleanup duty down the stretch or starting if Brock Purdy gets hurt.

STACKED’s take

NeutralRole

Rourke is a dynasty taxi squad option and potential 49ers emergency starter if Purdy injured.

Rourke played on a torn ACL as Kurt Cignetti's first starter at Indiana and led the rival. The 49ers took him as a redshirt option. Waldman notes that Mac Jones will likely be traded by midseason, and if the 49ers fall apart due to injury history among older players, Rourke could find himself in cleanup duty or starting if Brock Purdy gets hurt. Waldman recommends Rourke as a good taxi squad option in dynasty formats and a second-half emergency QB this year.
