Injury Strikes Promising Athlete, Fans Mourn Lost Potential
The only injury update for the 49ers after their 27-10 win over Commander was a major injury.Quarterback Christian McCaffrey left Sunday’s game early in the second half and was seen working on his calf on the sideline. San Francisco later listed him as questionable.
He did not return to the game.After the 49ers’ win, head coach Kyle Shanahan gave as much information as possible about McCaffrey’s “possible calf strain.
“”We think he’s going to be fine,” Shanahan said. “I don’t know if he could go next week or not, but we’ll have to find out tomorrow.
But he’s moved well on the side, so I hope it’s not too bad, but we won’t know until tomorrow.”The good news for San Francisco is that they don’t have to make a big decision about whether to push McCaffrey into action despite the injury.
With the #1 seed in the NFC wrapped up, they can comfortably give McCaffrey a week off. Then they have the first round where they can rest more.Shanahan should have more information on Monday when he speaks to reporters again..
