Christian McCaffrey

Christian McCaffrey (calf, Achilles) was limited in Wednesday’s practice.

Kyle Shanahan told reporters that McCaffrey wasn’t a candidate for injured reserve, which is a bit ominous given that no one expected him to go on injured reserve. McCaffrey was limited in all three practices last week before shockingly being made inactive, so this limited session doesn’t give us much in the way of new information. Both Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport have expressed doubt about McCaffrey suiting up this week, so fantasy managers should proceed as if Jordan Mason is the starter. Mason, who ran 28 times for 147 yards and a touchdown, is at the top of the waiver wire list for Week 2.
