Although San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey battled injuries throughout 2024, he's ready for 2025 to commence. When speaking to reporters, he explained how he's feeling and what the injury process has been like.

Indeed, McCaffrey has long been the standard-setter here. Last spring, the San Francisco 49ers gave him a two-year contract extension worth $19 million per year. That came on the heels of McCaffrey already sitting atop the running back market, as he was averaging $16 million per year on a contract signed with the Carolina Panthers in 2020.

Christian McCaffrey starts the offseason with “zero restrictions” following an injury-filled 2024 season for the San Francisco 49ers that limited him to just four games.
