## **Will 49ers’ Christian McCaffrey Play Vikings in Week 2? RB’s Status Has Been Murky** The 49ers are set to take on the Vikings in Week 2, but it's unclear if Christian McCaffrey will be able to play. McCaffrey was limited in practice this week with a minor ankle injury, and his status for Sunday's game is up in the air. If McCaffrey is unable to play, it would be a big blow to the 49ers' offense. McCaffrey is one of the most dynamic playmakers in the NFL, and he can line up at running back, wide receiver, or slot receiver. He is a key part of the 49ers' offense. Head coach Kyle Shanahan did not provide an update on McCaffrey's status after practice on Thursday. He said the team would make a decision on his availability closer to game time. If McCaffrey is unable to play, the 49ers will likely turn to Jeff Wilson Jr. and Tyrion Davis-Price to carry the load at running back. Deebo Samuel could also see an increased role in the offense if McCaffrey is out. The 49ers are hoping McCaffrey will be able to play on Sunday, but they will have to wait until closer to game time to make a decision. ### What does this mean for fantasy football?
