San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey has surfaced on the team’s injury report ahead of Sunday’s Week 1 road contest against the Seattle Seahawks. McCaffrey has a calf injury and was limited in practice Thursday, per Cam Inman of Bay Area News Group. He was a full participant in Wednesday’s practice.
McCaffrey, 29, missed the first eight games of the 2024 season with a calf and Achilles injury. He returned to play the next four games before a knee injury forced him to miss the final five games of the season. McCaffrey rushed for 202 yards and had 146 receiving yards in the four games he played. He led the league in rushing the previous season, winning the AP Offensive Player of the Year award.
