Christian McCaffrey is coping with one other long-term harm once more.

The San Francisco 49ers working again went down with a knee harm in the course of the second quarter of the staff’s “Sunday Evening Soccer Sport” loss to the Buffalo Payments and by no means returned.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan mentioned postgame that the 49ers consider McCaffrey injured the PCL in his knee, which may doubtlessly finish his season.

McCaffrey was injured after he obtained a toss from quarterback Brock Purdy. McCaffrey retrieved the soccer and instantly went all the way down to the bottom in apparent discomfort. After the play was whistled useless, the 49ers working again hobbled to the sideline and into the staff’s blue medical tent with 11:23 on the clock within the second interval.

Moments later, McCaffrey went into the locker room. He had 9 touches and 67 yards from scrimmage on the time of his harm.

The 49ers introduced that McCaffrey was questionable to return halfway by the second quarter. The staff downgraded McCaffrey to out firstly of the second half.

McCaffrey has had an injury-riddled 2024 season.

The 49ers star working again was positioned on injured reserve to start the season and missed the staff’s first eight video games on account of calf and Achilles accidents.

McCaffrey had 149 speeding yards and 132 receiving yards in three video games this season getting into Sunday night time’s contest.

“It was irritating,” Shanahan advised reporters postgame. “He had an ideal week of apply and I may really feel his urgency and stuff. Thought he got here out nice, trying actual good. He regarded like he simply acquired his shoestring there, he was about to interrupt a home name. I am guessing he acquired harm on that play, I do not know I by no means acquired to speak to him, however harm for him and difficult for our staff that that occurred to him.”

The 49ers entered Week 13 with 10 gamers on injured reserve.
