San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey has signed a two-year extension that will see him average $19 million per season.
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the 2023 NFL Offensive Player of the Year will see his salary increase $8 million and he will also receive $24 million more in guaranteed money. McCaffrey was set to make $11.8 million for the 2024 NFL season, which is from the contract he signed while with the Carolina Panthers.
That bump in salary will make McCaffrey, who turns 28 on Friday, the NFL's highest-paid running back.
