Christian McCaffrey to have an MRI tomorrow

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey is going to have an MRI on Monday to gain a fuller understanding of the injury to his ankle sustained during Sunday’s loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

#Panthers RB Christian McCaffrey, ruled out with an ankle, will have an MRI tomorrow to gain a full understanding of his ailment. The initial hope is it’s not too serious. But tomorrow will be telling.

Optimism is necessary here because the Panthers don’t have a whole lot on the bench behind McCaffrey when it comes to star power, let alone running back.
