49ers RB Christian McCaffrey "feels like" a longshot to play Week 2

49ers RB Christian McCaffrey (Achilles/calf) feels like a long-shot for Sunday against the Vikings.

Related Players: Jordan Mason, Isaac Guerendo

Fantasy Impact:

Jordan Mason went nuclear as a last-minute start in Week 1, so he should be in fantasy lineups of McCaffrey misses again. Guerendo and even Patrick Taylor could be rotated in a little more in Week 2, but aren't worth fantasy stashes quite yet.

49ers push back on report RB Christian McCaffrey could miss Week 2

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan pushed back at an earlier ESPN report that star running back Christian McCaffrey could miss Week 2.

When Shanahan was asked about the report from Adam Schefter after the 49ers' 32-19 win on Monday night over the Jets, Shanahan had a quip ready to go.

"That person must've been God," Shanahan said. He added that McCaffrey was a gametime decision on Monday night.

Fantasy Impact:

Schefter said McCaffrey pulled out of practice on Friday and no one was overly concerned at the time. But the calf was still tight on Monday before the game when he came in for treatment. However, it's not just his calf, he's also dealing with an Achilles issue. The team made the decision to play it safe since it's a long season and make CMC inactive, Schefter said. Schefter added it's a "strong possibility" McCaffrey won't play in Week 2, at Minnesota on turf. Mason had a huge game taking over for CMC on Monday night against the Jets. It's not necessarily a surprise as the team talked up Mason most of the summer. This is obviously worth monitoring and we can probably expect many different updates for the rest of the week leading up to Week 2. Mason should again be a nice play if CMC can't go. The Niners-Vikings game is also an early game on Sunday so owners will have time to adjust.

49ers RB Christian McCaffrey OUT for Monday night

The 49ers will have wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk and left tackle Trent Williams against the Jets on Monday night, but they will not have running back Christian McCaffrey.

Jordan Mason, Patrick Taylor and Isaac Guerendo are the available backs for the Niners.

Fantasy Impact:

Definitely a shocker and likely a big blow to fantasy owners. According to the story, McCaffrey said on Friday that he had no doubt he would play and there was plenty of optimism from head coach Kyle Shanahan and General Manager John Lynch as well. McCaffrey missed most of the summer with a calf injury and is listed with an Achilles issue as well, the story said. Mason had a great camp and seemed to get a lot of attention from coaches this summer, and likely should get a bulk of the workload tonight against the Jets. Hopefully CMC owners backed themselves up during drafts by nabbing Mason. If Mason is still on your wire, he's worth picking up for any team in case CMC's issues are longer term. Taylor and Guerendo could get work for the Niners as well - if you're in a pinch losing CMC. From the Jets side, Braelon Allen and Israel Abanikanda could see touches behind Breece Hall.

Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) listed as questionable for Monday night

49ers RB Christian McCaffrey is listed as questionable for Monday night's game against the Jets.

Fantasy Impact:

McCaffrey has been limited in practice. But when asked if there was any doubt about him playing Monday, he replied, "Nope." As long as McCaffrey is on the field, he is the No. 1 running back and maybe the No. 1 overall player in fantasy. Double-check his status Monday night but all signs point to him playing against the tough Jets defense.
