Christian McCaffrey "Likely" To Play Week 1

What They're Saying

The full report from Rapoport: "49ers RB Christian McCaffrey is questionable with a calf injury, but signs are pointing to him playing vs the Seahawks, per The Insiders. McCaffrey was running around on the side during practice Friday and was optimistic to reporters. Barring a setback, it’s likely he’ll go."

Vibes have been relatively good on McCaffrey since Friday afternoon. He did a pretty extensive warmup prior to practice that day and sounded optimistic about his Week 1 status afterward.

There's still elevated risk here, particularly in the form of an in-game setback. But McCaffrey will be impossible to keep out of fantasy lineups unless we get a report of him being on some type of snap count.

We'll continue to keep you updated on his status.
