49ers' Khalil Herbert: Back with San Francisco
The 49ers signed Herbert on Thursday.
Just three days after cutting Herbert, the Niners are bringing back the veteran running back after the team placed Patrick Taylor (undisclosed) on injured reserve in a corresponding move. Herbert carried the ball 16 times for 52 scoreless yards across seven regular-season appearances with the Jets last season. He faces an uphill battle to crack the 49ers' roster.

Khalil Herbert: Let go by San Francisco
The 49ers released Herbert on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Herbert spent most of the offseason on the open market before signing with the 49ers in early August due to the team's multiple injuries in the backfield. He played 31 snaps (24 on offense, seven on special teams) during the 49ers' 19-13 preseason loss to the Titans on Thursday, when he turned six carries into 18 yards and caught both of his targets for 35 yards while adding a tackle on a kickoff. Herbert will once again be a free agent and look to catch on with a team in need of backfield depth.

49ers' Khalil Herbert: Headed to San Francisco
The 49ers signed Herbert to a one-year deal Sunday.
Herbert will provide San Francisco with much-needed depth at running back, as Jordan James (ribs), Isaac Guerendo (pectoral) and Kaelon Black (undisclosed) are all currently dealing with injuries. Herbert spent last season with the Jets, rushing for 52 yards on 16 carries. The 28-year-old could also add value as a return specialist.

Jets' Khalil Herbert: Season-high 12 carries in Week 18
Herbert rushed 12 times for 42 yards and caught one of two targets for four yards in Sunday's 35-8 loss to the Bills.
Herbert had 12 carries to Kene Nwangwu's seven as the Jets played without Breece Hall (knee) after placing Isaiah Davis (concussion) on injured reserve Saturday. Prior to Sunday's season finale, Herbert had just four carries for 10 yards and no catches all season. The 27-year-old running back isn't expected to garner much interest in free agency, though Herbert may land a depth role somewhere.

Jets' Khalil Herbert: Two touches as other RBs go down
Herbert rushed twice for five yards and didn't catch his only target in Sunday's 42-10 loss to the Patriots.
Top two running backs Breece Hall (knee) and Isaiah Davis (concussion) exited in the second half, but Kene Nwangwu finished with six carries to Herbert's two. Both depth options could play expanded roles in Week 18 against the Bills if Hall and Davis are held out.

Jets' Khalil Herbert: Limited to special teams in Week 16
Herbert logged all 13 of his snaps on special teams in Sunday's 29-6 loss to the Saints.
Herbert has suited up for each of the Jets' last three games, but aside from playing a handful of snaps on offense in a blowout loss to Jacksonville in Week 15, he's been used exclusively on special teams. Breece Hall and Isaiah Davis should continue to handle nearly all of the available reps at running back in the Jets' final two games of the season.

Jets' Khalil Herbert: Inactive Sunday
Herbert (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Ravens.
Herbert was unavailable the past two games due to a groin injury but will be inactive again Sunday despite being recovered from the injury. Kene Nwangwu will instead serve as the No. 3 tailback behind Breece Hall and Isaiah Davis.

Jets' Khalil Herbert: Past groin injury
Herbert (groin) was not listed on Wednesday's injury report.
Herbert missed the Jets' last two games due to a groin injury, but his absence from Wednesday's injury report indicates that he is on track to play against the Ravens on Sunday. His return gives the Jets additional depth in the backfield and another return option on kickoffs.

Jets' Khalil Herbert: Won't play against New England
Herbert (groin) is inactive for Thursday night's game against the Patriots.
Despite being listed as a full participant during Week 11 prep, Herbert will be sidelined for a second consecutive game due to a groin injury. His next opportunity to play will be Week 12 against the Ravens on Sunday, Nov. 23. He's played solely on special teams across two regular-season games, but his absence means Kene Nwangwu will join Isaiah Davis as the Jets' backup running backs behind starter Breece Hall.

Jets' Khalil Herbert: Estimated as limited participant
Herbert (groin) was listed as a limited participant in the Jets' practice estimate Monday, Rich Cimini of ESPN reports.
Herbert appears closer to making his return after sitting out the Week 10 win over the Browns with a groin injury. If the 27-year-old ends up being able to suit up for Thursday's matchup versus the Patriots, he will likely resume his role as the team's No. 3 running back and kick returner.

Jets' Khalil Herbert: Won't play vs. Cleveland
Herbert (groin) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Browns.
A groin issue limited Herbert's practice participation Thursday and Friday, and the injury is severe enough for the fifth-year pro to be sidelined for Sunday's contest. Kene Nwangwu will be available as the Jets' RB3 behind Breece Hall and Isaiah Davis in Herbert's absence. Herbert will look to be available for the Jets' Week 11 clash against the Patriots on Thursday.

Jets' Khalil Herbert: Officially questionable for Week 10
Herbert (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Herbert popped up on Thursday's injury report due to a groin issue that limited his practice participation over the final two days of Week 10 prep. His status may not be known until the Jets announce their list of inactive players approximately 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If Herbert is not cleared to play, then Kene Nwangwu would serve as the Jets' RB3 behind Breece Hall and Isaiah Davis.
