STACKED’s take

Negative signalInjury

McCaffrey's cramps may prompt 49ers to implement planned workload split.

McCaffrey dealt with cramps in week one, raising questions about whether he returns to his normal workhorse role or if the 49ers implement a planned workload split with Kalen Black to mitigate injury risk; if the team is actually committing to keeping him healthy through shared carries, it could be positive for both his durability and Black's value.
