    49ers All-Pro RB limited at practice on Wednesday

    By Tommy Call III,

    Shortly before kickoff on Monday Night, the San Francisco 49ers ruled All-Pro running back Christian McCaffrey inactive against the New York Jets due to an ankle/Achilles injury. The same injury kept McCaffrey sidelined for all of the preseason.

    Now, McCaffrey’s status is in question for Week 2 against the Minnesota Vikings. Prior to Wednesday’s practice, 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters that McCaffrey would be limited in practice.

    Via @AdamSchefter on Twitter:

    If McCaffrey is unable to go, Jordan Mason will be in line for another heavy workload in Week 2 against the Vikings. Mason had a breakout performance against the Jets on Monday, rushing for 147 yards and a touchdown.

    The 49ers are scheduled to meet Sam Darnold and the Vikings in Minnesota on Sunday at 10 a.m. PT.
