Episode Details

Christian McCaffrey is still dominating, smashing his third straight season with over 2,000 scrimmage yards—putting him in elite company with legends like Walter Payton. Last year, he racked up 1,200+ rushing yards and nearly 1,000 receiving yards, scoring 17 touchdowns. Despite being one of only two RBs to hit 2,000 scrimmage yards (Bijan Robinson edged him for top honors), McCaffrey remains a top-four running back according to NFL insiders. At 29, he’s showing no signs of slowing down, even as execs note his versatility might be tested if he’s targeted in both run and pass. Still, he’s elite—and he’s locked in with the 49ers through 2027. His 2024 comeback from injury earned him Comeback Player of the Year, MVP votes, and a finalist nod for Offensive Player of the Year. This is a veteran who’s not just staying relevant—he’s setting the standard.
