The San Francisco 49ers visited the Denver Broncos and came away with a 25-16 victory to remain unbeaten during the NFL preseason. Here’s the stock report of some various 49ers during the game.

The San Francisco 49ers kept their unbeaten NFL preseason streak in 2019 alive with a 25-16 victory over the Denver Broncos, albeit a streak that doesn’t really count for anything yet.

After a weekend of practices with the Broncos, all eyes were on quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo and his return to football following his torn ACL. The results were not what fans were hoping for (more on that later), but he got through the game healthy, which is the most important thing.

That being said, there was plenty of good that happened into the game for the Niners as well. This includes a potential breakout offensive player as well as a strong showing by the 49ers defenders.

Time to look at the stock report for some 49ers out there, as well as a small look at some smaller stock ups and downs that weren’t able to get a slide themselves.

Stock up: Raheem Mostert

Once known only as a special teams ace, the 49ers may have found a potential diamond with the progression of running back Raheem Mostert.

Mostert had six carries and made them count, totaling 58 yards and a touchdown from 30 yards out. Mostert also had two catches for 42 yards to bring up 100 yards of offense.

Mostert was fast, patient and looks like a perfect complement to the running back rotation the 49ers will employ.

While he won’t be a starter, Mostert projects to be the third running back on the roster who can give the players above him a spell. His special teams ability gives him that little bit of extra value for the roster, too.

It was as good a game as Mostert could have, and it really increased his value in the committee of running backs.
