49ers’ oft-injured Christian McCaffrey angry and eager to rise, again (paywall)
“McCaffrey felt like he had a “better burst,” finally had his “feet under me again” and was hitting holes with authority, providing him with evidence that he still had it.
“That was good,” McCaffrey said. “It was good that it happened. I got to taste it again. And understand what I can do. I’m feeling great now.”
McCaffrey, who has a maniacal work ethic, is known for his rigorous offseason training. And the question of whether he overtrained last year has been raised after he was sidelined by tendinitis early in training camp.
