On Monday night, the San Francisco 49ers hosted the New York Jets for the first Monday Night Football game of the year. The 49ers came away with the win despite being without All-Pro running back Christian McCaffrey.
Now, further details have emerged about the severity of McCaffrey’s injury. It’s being reported that he is suffering from Achilles tendinitis, which can take months to heal in serious cases, but his severity is not yet fully known.
Of course, McCaffrey was the cover athlete for Madden 25, and many online are now pointing to the infamous “Madden Curse” for the injury.
“Can teams ban their players from taking the cover? They should for the sake of their season,” said one comment.
“madden cover, new commercials, recently married… the holy trinity of fantasy red flags,” said another about McCaffrey.
“But are we sure it’s the Madden curse, and not the curse of the unanimous 1.01? Or the curse of the RB who led the NFL in touches the previous season?” added a third.
“It’s a very real thing and there’s people out there in X land that will lose their ever loving minds with this kind of talk,” continued a fourth.
Of course, hopefully, a speedy recovery will return one of the most dynamic and explosive running backs to the field sooner rather than later.
49ers Offense Functioned Well Without Christian McCaffrey
The thought of a 49ers offense without star running back Christian McCaffrey seems frightening. He completely changes the game plan of any defense when he touches the field.
However, the offense seemed to do just fine with McCaffrey out against the Jets on Monday Night Football.
Backup running back Jordan Mason still broke out with 28 carries for 147 yards and one touchdown. His performance was one of the key pieces in the 49ers win
Kevin Durant’s Mother Claims Her Son Would Have Won Multiple Championships If He Had Stayed With Warriors

Kevin Durant has wrapped up the Paris Olympics in remarkable fashion, becoming the only player in history to win four gold medals in men’s basketball. After returning from injury to lead Team USA, Durant’s performance has fueled high expectations for the Phoenix Suns in the upcoming NBA season.
Amid this success, Durant’s time with the Golden State Warriors has come back into focus, especially through the words of his mother, Wanda Durant. Wanda recently boldly stated that if Team USA’s top scorer had stayed with the Warriors team, they could have dominated the league for years.
“We would’ve had 20 rings by now. And it was about 10 years ago. That’s how cold they were,” Wanda said on the latest episode of TV One’s “Raising Fame.
Durant joined the Warriors in 2016 and quickly made an impact, leading the team to two consecutive championships in 2017 and 2018. However, after the 2018 season, Durant left Golden State and signed with the Brooklyn Nets. He departed after a difficult 2019 NBA Finals, where he suffered a ruptured Achilles while playing against the Toronto Raptors.
