49ers' Ronnie Bell: Sees extra reps Sunday
Ronnie Bell played 24 of the San Francisco 49ers' 63 snaps on offense and finished with one reception for 10 yards on two targets in Sunday's 28-18 loss to the Chiefs.With Jauan Jennings (hip) inactive and with Deebo Samuel (illness) and Brandon Aiyuk (knee) playing just four and 25 snaps, respectively, before exiting the contest, extra opportunities became available for Bell and the 49ers' other depth wideouts. Aiyuk has since been ruled out for the season, while the statuses of Samuel and Jennings for Sunday's game against the Cowboys are up in the air. As a result, Bell could be in store for at least one more contest with an expanded role, after he had played just 10 total snaps on offense across San Francisco's previous three contests. In addition to Bell, rookies Ricky Pearsall and Jacob Cowing and veteran Chris Conley -- who is considered day-to-day with an ankle sprain -- currently represent the 49ers' healthiest receivers.

49ers' Ronnie Bell: No receptions in Week 1 win
Ronnie Bell logged 13 snaps on offense (18 percent) Monday but did not log a reception in a 32-19 win over the Jets.Bell made San Francisco's opening roster as expected after catching just six of 13 targets over 17 regular-season games as a rookie in 2023. The wideout didn't record a reception in Monday's win, and he did not get an opportunity to return a kickoff while rookie Jacob Cowing handled punt return duties. Given his current role, Bell doesn't move the fantasy needle heading into a Week 2 matchup against the Vikings.

49ers' Ronnie Bell: Scores thrice as rookie
Ronnie Bell finished with six receptions (13 targets) for 68 yards and three touchdowns while appearing in 17 regular-season games for San Francisco in 2023.Bell product wasn't projected to make the 53-man roster after being selected by a team loaded at receiver, but a strong camp earned him a reserve role out of the gates. The Michigan product didn't get a ton of run with just six catches in 17 games, but he had a nose for the end zone with half of those receptions hitting pay dirt. Bell also helped fill in for an injured Ray-Ray McCloud as the San Francisco 49ers' punt returner over the team's final five games. With the latter's contract expiring this offseason, Bell could find himself taking over return duties while being mixed in on offense in 2024.

49ers' Ronnie Bell: Won't play in NFC Championship
Ronnie Bell (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Lions, Lindsey Pallares of the San Francisco 49ers' official site reports.Bell will sit out a second straight game after not suiting up for the Niners' divisional-round win over the Packers.

49ers' Ronnie Bell: Logs 10 snaps in win
Ronnie Bell failed to bring in his only target in Sunday's 27-10 win over the Commanders.Bell also returned two punts for 17 yards on special teams for a total of 16 snaps (10 on offense) Sunday. The rookie wideout appeared to split slot duties with veteran Chris Conley with Jauan Jennings (concussion) still sidelined to injury. Conley finished with more snaps on offense (22), but Bell was the only reserve wideout to receive a target against Washington. Both backups would see a bump in playing time should the confirmed No. 1 seed San Francisco 49ers decide to rest either of its top two star receivers against the Rams.

49ers' Ronnie Bell: Scores TD in garbage time
Ronnie Bell caught his only target for a 12-yard touchdown in Monday's 33-19 loss to Baltimore.Bell saw his role elevated slightly with the San Francisco 49ers missing a few role players in the primetime loss to the Ravens. The 2023 seventh-round selection wound up playing seven total snaps Monday, four of which came on special teams and the last three coming on offense when the game was well out of hand. He made the most of his limited opportunities by grabbing his second touchdown of the season on a pass from Sam Darnold. Bell's first score came back in Week 3, and he has seen just four total targets in 11 active games between those trips to the end zone. Given his sporadic usage and the nature of Monday's score, Bell should not be considered as a fantasy option for Week 17 when the 49ers visit the Commanders on Dec. 31.

49ers' Ronnie Bell: Role on offense declining
Ronnie Bell played seven of the San Francisco 49ers' 59 snaps on offense and wasn't targeted in Sunday's 42-19 win over the Eagles.Since recording two catches for 24 yards and a touchdown in a Week 3 win over the Giants, Bell has seen his playing time and role in the passing game steadily taper off. He's received double-digit snaps in just two of his last nine appearances and has just two receptions for 27 yards on three targets during that stretch.

49ers' Ronnie Bell: No catches Sunday
Ronnie Bell failed to catch his lone target in Sunday's 42-10 win over the Cowboys.Jauan Jennings (shin) returned from his one-game absence against the Cowboys to bring the San Francisco 49ers' receiver room back to full strength, effectively pushing Bell into a special teams role. Eleven of the rookie's 14 offensive snaps came in garbage time of the blowout victory, with Bell's lone target coming much earlier in the game when he dropped a catchable ball from Brock Purdy that would have dug the offense out of a second-and-long hole. Bell made up for his gaff on special teams two plays later by fielding Mitch Wishnowsky's punt within five yards of Dallas' end zone to pin the opposition deep in its own territory. The Michigan product will likely need another crooked score to reach double-digit snaps on offense against Cleveland on Sunday.

49ers' Ronnie Bell: Used sparingly Sunday
Ronnie Bell caught his lone target for seven yards in Sunday's 35-16 win over the Cardinals.The San Francisco 49ers were without one of their top three receivers for the second consecutive week, which afforded Bell nine snaps on offense (16 percent) Sunday. The rookie was unable to repeat last week's trip to the end zone, resulting in a quiet receiving day from the Michigan product. Jauan Jennings' shin injury doesn't appear to be serious, so Bell's playing time may vanish as soon as Sunday's matchup against the Cowboys.
