49ers general manager John Lynch was thrilled to speak to reporters Friday about San Francisco’s newest addition in running back Christian McCaffrey and what he believes will provide a “jolt” to the offense.
The Panthers traded McCaffrey during Thursday Night Football in a blockbuster deal that sent shockwaves around the NFL. As Lynch sat at the table inside San Francisco’s practice facility answering questions, the sixth-year GM shared his excitement about his newest weapon, calling him the “perfect player” for coach Kyle Shanahan’s offensive scheme.
“He brings a lot more than just running back skills,” Shanahan told media Friday.
