It looks like Christian McCaffrey is good to go for Sunday.
After being limited in practice on Thursday due to an ankle injury, the Panthers running back was a full participant on Friday and will play vs. New Orleans this week.
Two weeks into the season, McCaffrey has gotten off to a slow start, accumulating just 135 rushing yards on 25 attempts with one touchdown. The two-time All-Pro led the league in all-purpose yards in 2019, 2,392 on 403 touches.
McCaffrey battled injuries during the 2020 and ’21 seasons, so the team has decided to give him Wednesdays off as a rest day for the season.
