Christian McCaffrey Headshot

49ers RB Christian McCaffrey did not experience any setbacks with his Achilles tendonitis after returning to on-field work this week, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. Although he was dealing with tendonitis in both Achilles at one point, it's only one that's giving him trouble right now, per Schefter. McCaffrey finally seems to be trending in the right direction. Schefter adds that McCaffrey could return as early as Week 7 or be held out through San Francisco's Week 9 bye, depending on how he responds to increased work in practice.
