Draft note

by John Paulsen

McCaffrey was the No. 3 running back in 2018 before his epic 411-point half-PPR 2019 campaign in 2019. The Panthers have a new quarterback (Teddy Bridgewater), but McCaffrey will continue to be the centerpiece of the Carolina offense and has a good chance to repeat his No. 1 RB finish if he’s able to play 15+ games. His 266 targets over the last two seasons are 48 more than second-place (James White). His 142 targets last year were the most by any running back since PFR started to track targets in 1992. His 124 targets in 2018 were the sixth-most.

Latest news

Panthers RB Christian McCaffrey (shoulder) will practice without contact

Panthers RB Christian McCaffrey is at practice Wednesday but has not been cleared for contact.

Fantasy Impact:

McCaffrey is recovering from an AC joint sprain suffered in Week 9. While his return to limited practice is promising, Carolina has a bye in Week 13 and it is possible the star running back is held out until Week 14. Monitor McCaffrey's practice status later in the week for updates. For as long as McCaffrey remains sidelined, Mike Davis will be a solid RB2 for fantasy purposes.

CAR RB Christian McCaffrey - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 at Kansas City Chiefs

Christian McCaffrey hasn’t played the past six games, but there’s hope for him suiting up for Week 9 against the Chiefs. While it’s possible the team eases him back into the lineup, it seems they’d hold him out completely if he wasn’t ready to go. Regardless of matchup, McCaffrey is too talented not to start every week he’s active. Check his status leading up to game time. If he’s a go, insert him in your lineup and hope he stays healthy for the rest of the year.
