Early enough in his up-and-coming NFL career to avoid harboring resentment over the pair of hard-to-stomach losses San Francisco endured under the Chiefs’ doing, Jordan Mason, nonetheless, presented the perfect remedy on Oct. 20, 2024: a run up the gut. Finding victory in Super Bowl LVIII’s rematch there for the taking, the third-year tailback seized it, barreling through the field’s middle, ultimately putting Kansas City’s safety on ice skates in October upon powering into a 26-yard run. Although the 49ers were ultimately dealt a 28-18 defeat, Mason added to his impressive statistical ledger as the RB1, tallying 69 yards on 16 touches.
