Fred Warner excited to see what JaMyCal Hasty does with opportunity

JaMycal Hasty earned praise from his defensive teammate,
Fred Warner, during training camp. The undrafted free agent running back landed on the San Francisco 49ers practice squad to start the season.
The 49ers promoted Hasty to the active roster on October 3. He has just 46 rushing yards on 11 carries this season, but 37 of those yards came during Sunday night's win over the Los Angeles Rams after a high-ankle sprain sidelined Raheem Mostert.
"I did mention [Hasty] back in training camp just because we all see him make the cuts," Warner told reporters on Wednesday. "And just the explosiveness that he has when he does touch the rock, it's something that jumps off the field, jumps off the tape."
Hasty figures to help contribute to the 49ers' rushing attack in Mostert's absence. The group is also without
Tevin Coleman. Although, he should be back soon.
On Sunday, the 49ers offense will feature
Jerick McKinnon, Hasty, and they hope
Jeff Wilson Jr. Wilson is currently being limited in practice as he deals with a calf injury.
"[Hasty has] continued to get better and better as he's gotten those reps," Warner continued, "and obviously, he's going to be able to get more opportunities now, going forward, and I'm excited for him. He's going to continue to work."

The 2020 season was a strange one. For the San Francisco 49ers, it was filled with injuries, and the team suffered setbacks due to the COVID-19 pandemic. That includes members of the team being kicked out of their homes for over a month and moving to Arizona after Santa Clara County restrictions banned contact sports.
Linebacker Fred Warner feels that this past season's adversity made him and his teammates stronger and believes the 49ers will bounce back better for it in 2021.
Thank you Faithful for sticking with us all season. Not the season we wanted, but we'll come back better from it. I promise you'll get my all
