San Francisco 49ers superstar running back Christian McCaffrey has been added to the injury report ahead of Monday night’s season opener vs. the New York Jets.
If McCaffrey is unable to suit up, head coach Kyle Shanahan would presumably give 25-year-old Jordan Mason the starting RB1 duties. The former Georgia Tech standout has 464 rushing yards and four touchdowns over his first two NFL seasons.
Christian McCaffrey led the NFL with 1,459 rushing yards en route to his first Offensive Player of the Year award last season. Run CMC also had 14 rushing touchdowns to go along with 67 receptions for 564 yards and seven touchdowns.
McCaffrey’s 49ers reached Super Bowl 58, narrowly falling to the Kansas City Chiefs in overtime. The 49ers are aiming to follow the footsteps of the 2018 New England Patriots, who won Super Bowl 53 a year after losing to the Philadelphia Eagles in the big game.
Entering his eighth NFL season, Christian McCaffrey has 6,185 career rushing yards, 52 touchdowns, 509 receptions, 4,320 receiving yards and 29 receiving touchdowns.
Christian McCaffrey Is The Engine Of 49ers’ Offense
The 49ers have three other superstar weapons in wide receivers Brandon Aiyuk, Deebo Samuel and tight end George Kittle. But their offense has reached another stratosphere since they acquired McCaffrey in a blockbuster trade with the Carolina Panthers during the 2022 season.
McCaffrey is on a Hall of Fame trajectory, and the only thing missing now is a Super Bowl championship ring. Having lost two Super Bowls and a pair of NFC Championship Games over the last five years, perhaps the 49ers are finally due for a big break in the postseason.
Social Media Is Pissed Off After Skip Bayless Claims LeBron James Shouldn’t Have Won MVP Over Stephen Curry

The 2024 Paris Olympics was Stephen Curry’s first ever appearance in the Paris Olympics. The Golden State Warriors star poured so much athleticism into his first appearance on the international stage that caught everyone’s attention, including popular NBA analyst Skip Bayless.
After Team USA’s 98-87 victory over France in the Olympics final, LeBron James was crowned with the MVP title of the tournament. Soon after that, Bayless stirred controversy by posting on social media that LeBron should not win the MVP title. Rather, the sports analyst sees Curry as the real winner of the title.
“I’M SORRY, NOW THERE’S NO WAY LEBRON IS MVP. IT HAS TO BE STEPH. 17 THREES IN THE SEMI AND THE FINAL. WE WOULD NOT HAVE WON EITHER WITHOUT HIM,” Bayless wrote in an X post.
Curry scored 24 points in the final game against France. With his outstanding shooting skills, the Warriors star hit eight three-pointers, three of which came in the closing minutes of the fourth quarter. On the other hand, James contributed 14 points and 10 assists and shot an impressive 60% from the field.
