The San Francisco 49ers await the news of Brandon Aiyuk and hope they’re wrong about a potential torn ACL. While that process is ongoing, the return timetable for running back Christian McCaffrey seems to be set.
When will Christian McCaffrey return from injury?
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport provided a potential target date for the return of the reigning Offensive Player of the Year:
