49ers' Lattimore expects to practice by mid-year

02:08 PM ET 06.29 | San Francisco 49ers running back Marcus Lattimore is one of the guys that you can't help but to root for. After suffering a horrifying knee injury at South Carolina, Lattimore was able to stay focused and work his way back to the field. It took countless hours of intense rehab, but Lattimore is finally in the NFL and closer to reaching his ultimate dream. While Lattimore won't be ready for training camp, he believes that he will be ready to start participating in practice for the 49ers by midseason.
