Where Was Run CMC?
Before Sunday, it was all quiet on the McCaffrey front, and not in a good way. The star back had been sidelined, missing a string of practices due to an undisclosed injury. You know how those “undisclosed” tags go; they always make you wonder what’s really happening. For any team, a player of McCaffrey’s caliber sitting out is a major concern, especially with the 2026 NFL season on the horizon.
Back in the Mix, Just in Time
But then Sunday hit. McCaffrey showed up in uniform for training camp practice, a sight that must have been music to the 49ers’ ears.
