The San Francisco 49ers could soon see Christian McCaffrey in their backfield for the first time this season after officially opening his practice window on Monday.

Could this be the week the San Francisco 49ers finally get Christian McCaffrey back on the field? McCaffrey, who has been battling Achilles tendinitis in both ankles, has yet to make his 2024 season debut. But that could change in Week 10 as the 49ers officially opened McCaffrey’s practice window on Monday. That means McCaffrey has 21 days to be added to the active roster, or he would need to be done for the season. CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.

Then another blow came when the 49ers announced McCaffrey would go on injured reserve, forcing him to miss at least four games, but it’s been many more since then. It even got to the point where McCaffrey ventured over to Germany to receive expert treatment for his Achilles injury. And then Shanahan revealed that McCaffrey has been dealing with it in both ankles.

If and when he returns to the fold, perhaps the offense will get back to blowing out teams. For now, 49ers fans – and eager fantasy football owners who have stashed McCaffrey – await what happens in this very important week.
