Christian McCaffrey is 3rd in NFL history to post 1,000-1,000 season

Christian McCaffrey made history on Sunday.

The Panthers running back — and former Valor Christian star — became just the third player in NFL history to record 1,000 yards rushing and 1,000 yards receiving in the same year. He joins Marshall Faulk (1999) and Roger Craig (1985) as the only players to reach the mark.

McCaffrey entered the game against the Saints needing 67 yards receiving to reach 1,000.
