Vaughn is a familiar name for those who follow close to the 49ers. He spent most of the last pre-season with San Francisco after signing in early August. He saw the action in a single pre-season match and rushed twice for 12 yards in this competition. Vaughn ended up spending most of last season in the 49ers training team. He was promoted to the active list for three games.
There is a chance that he can see more action in this pre-season than last year. RB Christian McCaffrey is not likely to adapt, and Jordan James and Isaac Guerendo are injured. This leaves only the not recovered recruit Corey Kiner, the veteran Patrick Taylor Jr. and the veteran Ameer Abdullah to take the RB shots in the pre-season fight on Saturday with Denver. Given that Vaughn has more experience in the 49ers offensive than Kiner and Abdullah, the team may need to rely on him to help them spend a 60 -minute football match.
