Christian McCaffrey takes encouraging injury step toward 49ers return at practice
The 49ers’ star-studded offense seems to be getting its stars healthy.
George Kittle was activated from the Physically Unable to Perform list on Sunday, and superstar running back Christian McCaffrey is in full uniform for the 49ers’ practice, per The Post’s Evan Webeck.
McCaffrey missed roughly two weeks of practice because of what has been deemed “tightness” in his leg.
San Francisco hadn’t been very forthright in detailing what this “tightness” entails. But it raised alarms because McCaffrey was dealing with something similar before the 2024 campaign and ended up missing the entire preseason and the 49ers’ first eight regular-season games because of it.
The fact that McCaffrey is already back in full uniform and practicing bodes well for his status ahead of the 49ers’ Week 1 game, which is against the Rams in Australia on Sept. 10.
