49ers signing RB Marlon Mack to the 53-man roster, QB Kurt Benkert to the practice squad

The 49ers, according to Adam Schefter, will be promoting running back Marlon Mack to the 53-man roster, meaning he’ll be taking Trey Lance’s roster spot, as he will be placed on injured reserve after a season-ending ankle injury.

49ers are signing veteran RB Marlon Mack on to their active roster from their practice squad, per his agents @DrewJRosenhaus and @NFLrecord. 49ers are without injured RBs Elijah Mitchell and Tyrion Davis-Price.
