Fantasy fallout: Christian McCaffrey, Jimmy Graham generating buzz
You can't believe everything you see in the preseason. But some plays are just too tantalizing to ignore.
Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey dazzled on a 71-yard touchdown run Friday -- the longest run of any player in the preseason to date. And he finished with a total of 120 yards on nine touches, lending some credence to his coaches' vow to make him the centerpiece of the offense in his second NFL season.
Meanwhile, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers and new tight end Jimmy Graham have now played a total of one series together in the preseason -- and it ended with an 8-yard TD connection.
