The San Francisco 49ers didn’t need long to provide a brutal injury update on superstar running back Christian McCaffrey following their ugly loss to the Buffalo Bills on ‘Sunday Night Football.’
Christian McCaffrey left the second quarter of Sunday’s snow-filled game after suffering a non-contact injury. The reigning rushing champion gave himself up and slid to the ground to avoid being tackled before leaving the game for good.
Per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said after the game that McCaffrey suffered a PCL injury that may be season-ending. “Run CMC” missed the first eight games of 2024 because of a calf/Achilles injury.

A Horrible Season Gets Worse For Christian McCaffrey & 49ers
Christian McCaffrey is, unfortunately, no stranger to the injury bug. The 28-year-old missed all but 10 games over the 2020 and 2021 seasons as a member of the Carolina Panthers. Sadly, this is already the third season where McCaffrey will have missed most of a campaign with injuries.
Kansas City Chiefs President Forced To Address Rumors That Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce’s Relationship Is Just A “Marketing Strategy” For The Team

There’s a conspiracy theory for just about everything, including bizarre ones relating to the highly publicized relationship between Grammy Award-winning singer Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
The three-time Super Bowl champion has been in a relationship with Taylor Swift for over a year. Their rumored romance was confirmed when Swift attended the Chiefs’ Week 3, 2023 home game against the Chicago Bears at Arrowhead Stadium.
Kelce’s romance with Swfit has been a giant win for the Chiefs and the NFL, too. She has brought plenty more attention to the NFL and contributed to the Chiefs’ skyrocketing popularity worldwide.
Naturally, conspiracy theorists believe the Travis Kelce-Taylor Swift romance is simply a marketing ploy to help the Chiefs and the league. But Chiefs president Mark Donovan finally addressed the ridiculous rumor during an appearance on NBC’s “Squawk Box” program:
“I’d love to say that it was a marketing strategy, but it is an authentic relationship. And we’re happy to have it, and it’s been nothing but good for us.
I think the best thing I can say about the whole relationship and the impact it’s had on us is, Taylor Swift is an authentic member of the Kansas City Chiefs kingdom. She’s an authentic fan and that matters to our fans and our fan base and to matters to us and we try to respect that.”
