The 49ers on Tuesday began preparations for their divisional playoff game vs. the Green Bay Packers. They’ll do so with running back Christian McCaffrey as a full participant according to head coach Kyle Shanahan.

McCaffrey’s calf strain was a key reason San Francisco so badly needed the first-round playoff bye. He was nicked up in the team’s Week 17 win over the Commanders, then missed the season finale against the Rams with a calf injury. He’s now back in practice and is on track to suit up in the 49ers’ playoff opener.
