Episode Details

Christian McCaffrey just won the 2026 ESPYS Best Comeback Athlete award, adding to his AP NFL Comeback Player of the Year title from March. After missing chunks of 2024 due to injuries, he returned in 2025 as a monster, starting all 17 games for the 49ers. He rushed for over 1,200 yards and 10 TDs while leading all RBs with 102 catches, 900+ yards, and 7 receiving TDs. Historic for being the first player ever to score at least 5 rushing and 5 receiving TDs in one season — and he did it in 12 games with a TD. Also earned First-Team All-Pro and Pro Bowl honors. His ESPYS win is a shining tribute to his relentless comeback and elite play.
