Christian McCaffrey has had enough of the many doctors who seemed to have much to say about the injury that has kept him out for much of the 2024 NFL season.
The San Francisco 49ers running back had been out all season until he finally made his return last Sunday for the team.
An Achilles injury had kept him out all year. He was certainly rusty, as he finished with 13 carries for 39 yards and also added six receptions for 68 yards.
Amid his comeback, he made sure to take some time to take a shot at “Instagram doctors” while speaking to the media.
“I think one thing I learned just about the whole process was that you get a lot of Instagram doctors out there,” Christian McCaffrey said.
“I had guys diagnosing my injury injuries, PhDs, doctors, etc. I was watching the Sunday Night game, some doctor was talking about my injury on the TV, I couldn’t believe it. I’ve never talked to him in my life. He’s never seen imaging, talked to me, or diagnosed me. It’s just kind of the world we live in now so I tried to stay focused on my plan, what I trusted in, and go from there.”
McCaffrey resumed practicing last week after seven weeks after from the team. He came off the injured reserve list Saturday.
Christian McCaffrey has a chance to better his debut numbers when the 49ers take on the Seattle Seahawks.
The team has a good chance of taking their record to two games above .500.
A Healthy Christian McCaffrey Has A Chance of Turning The 49ers Season Around
At one point, the San Francisco 49ers alternated between wins and losses, unable to string together any victories.
The team looked nothing like last year’s Super Bowl squad.
With Christian McCaffrey back in the fold, the team has a chance to win three games in a row for the first time all year.
Aside from that, having their dynamic running back on the field could change everything for th eteam as they look to make a late season run and possibly another run in the postseason.
The team desperately wants to be back in the Super Bowl and win it this time
