Christian McCaffrey's performance during the 49ers offseason training has been a topic of mixed reviews. At 29, McCaffrey faces scrutiny after a challenging season marked by injuries, including Achilles tendinitis and a PCL strain, limiting him to just four games. Despite past glories as a powerful offensive player, questions linger about his speed and durability. Coach Kyle Shanahan aims to manage McCaffrey's practice intensity to prevent further injuries. McCaffrey strives to focus on consistency and improvement amid performance evaluations and external pressures as the 49ers aim for a better season.
I don't think about that, McCaffrey said Wednesday as the 49ers wrapped up their offseason. My job is to put my body in the best position it can be and be me. There's a lot of noise and sometimes there's a lot of things going on. My job is to go 100 percent every play and continue to get better.
It's been a different McCaffrey in one sense. Coach Kyle Shanahan has vowed to protect him from himself in terms of practice workload, so he's not playing at warp speed on every play.
