49ers running back Kendall Hunters season is over before it began. The 49ers
confirmed Saturday that Hunter tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his right
knee during Fridays practice. Hunter began training camp as the No. 2 running
back behind Frank Gore. Hunters knee buckled awkwardly as he tried to make a
move during a non-contact drill. He was able to walk off the field on his own
before an MRI confirmed the tear. Hunters injury leaves LaMichael James, rookie
Carlos Hyde, rehabbing Marcus Lattimore and Jewel Hampton as the most likely
candidates to fill the void behind Gore in San Franciscos power running game.
Hunter had spelled Gore more than anybody the past three years. He burst onto
the scene as a rookie in 2011 and started strong in 2012 before missing the
final two months of the season — when the 49ers advanced to the Super Bowl,
losing to the Baltimore Ravens — with a torn left Achilles tendon. Hunter rushed
for 358 yards and three touchdowns on 78 carries last season. He has averaged
4.6 yards per carry since San Francisco selected him in the fourth round of the
2011 draft out of Oklahoma State. He was entering the final season of his
contract.
