It’s been quite the roller coaster for the San Francisco 49ers and star Christian McCaffrey as he’s dealt with a pesky Achilles injury. On NFL Network’s “Good Morning Football” show on Friday, insider Ian Rapoport gave the most hopeful update we’ve heard yet about McCaffrey’s return to action.
Rapoport said McCaffrey has a “very good chance” to return on Nov. 10 when the 49ers play at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, even though McCaffrey still has not returned to practice. He gave that update as he was discussing McCaffrey’s replacement Jordan Mason, who is nursing a shoulder injury but is expected to play against the Cowboys on Sunday.
