Christian McCaffrey On The Week 1 Injury Report
2 years agoCarolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (shin) was added to the Week 1 injury report with a shin injury on Thursday, but he was a full participant in practice. Fantasy managers are already cringing seeing McCaffrey on the first injury report of the season, but thankfully this injury is unlikely to keep him sidelined for the regular season opener this Sunday against the Cleveland Browns. Apparently CMC suffered a cut on his shin from a cleat, so it's nothing to worry about. The 26-year-old has struggled to stay healthy the last two seasons, but if he's on the field, he has as much upside as any back in the league. As long as he's active against Cleveland this weekend, he should be in all starting fantasy lineups.
