Kyle Williams done for season with torn ACL, thrusting A.J. Jenkins into the fantasy picture
Kyle Williams suffered a torn ACL and is done for the season, leaving rookie A.J. Jenkins next in line for the No. 4 WR spot. We break down the fantasy implications.

First-round rookie A.J. Jenkins is expected to take Williams' spot on the roster.
Fantasy Impact: Jenkins has had an unusual rookie year for a first-rounder--he was only active in the season opener and hasn’t dressed since. The Williams injury may finally force Jim Harbaugh’s hand and let him on the field.
Jenkins isn't a fantasy option this season, but keeper/dynasty owners should be intrigued by the raw talent. If he clicks with Colin Kaepernick, great things could happen. Keep an eye on this situation.
