    Christian McCaffrey out for Niners’ opener against Jets

    By Barry Werner,

    2024-09-09

    The San Francisco 49ers announced Monday that star running back Christian McCaffrey will miss Monday night’s opener against the New York Jets.

    McCaffrey battled a calf injury in training camp and that is what will keep him out of the first game of the season.

    Fantasy football team owners must be flipping out if they have McCaffrey.

    ESPN’s Adam Schefter indicated McCaffrey could also missed Week 2 against the Minnesota Vikings.
