Black entered the Week 7 matchup as the primary backup to starting running back Christian McCaffrey. He had recorded 170 rushing yards on 45 carries this season.
McCaffrey handled the majority of the backfield work early in Sunday's game but was sidelined with a thigh injury. He was listed as questionable to return.
