Michael's teammate Thomas Rawls (lower leg) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against San Francisco.
With Rawls likely sidelined and C.J. Prosise (questionable-hand) potentially limited or unavailable, Michael is set for a heavy workload that could include the vast majority of snaps on obvious passing downs, in addition to dominance of the rushing attempts. Given the role and opponent, Michael is shaping up as a clear top-10 option at running back for Week 3.
