We haven’t seen a full season from Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey since 2019 when he rushed for 1,387 yards and also added another 1,005 yards through the air. The subsequent seasons have been mired with injury, but when he’s been healthy, CMC has remained one of the best producers in fantasy football.
On a per-game basis, McCaffrey finished as the RB4 or better in the four healthy games he played with at least a 50% snap share in 2021. None of the star running back’s injuries have required major surgery, making betting on CMC even trickier.
