Christian McCaffrey Struggles On The Ground
2 years agoSan Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey had a hard time finding room to run during Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Chargers. He rushed 14 times for 38 yards and one touchdown in the win. McCaffrey did more damage in the receiving game with four receptions on six targets for 39 yards. Surprisingly, Elijah Mitchell returned from the injured reserve and split the carries in the backfield with McCaffrey. It's uncertain if that trend will continue or if it was just because Mitchell was rushing so well on Sunday. Regardless, McCaffrey should remain a RB1 against the Arizona Cardinals next week.
