Reports indicate that Christian McCaffrey will not be making his season debut due to ongoing calf and Achilles issues, despite returning to practice last week. The situation unfolded on Monday, where pre-game warmups revealed he wasn't prepared for the game against the Jets, raising concerns over his readiness for the long season ahead. As a result, Jordan Mason will take the starting role for the 49ers.
Last season, McCaffrey had a standout performance, leading the NFL with a career-high of 1,459 rushing yards on 272 attempts, in addition to scoring 21 total touchdowns. His successful season came after his midseason trade from the Carolina Panthers where he further established his prowess as a top NFL running back. However, his current injury status adds uncertainty to his impact in the upcoming games.
