CMC appears to be ready to go in Week 1, and his workload will be steep. Rookie Kaelon Black is positioned as the San Francisco 49ers' RB2, and I don't see them giving him much run — especially in the red zone. McCaffrey led all RBs last year in RZ rush attempts, scoring 10 times. He also had the fourth-most targets through the air with 25, and he hauled 20 of them in — seven being in the end zone.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

McCaffrey's red zone workload and target volume support 56% anytime TD probability.

Christian McCaffrey is expected to play in Week 1 after clearing the injury report, and his workload will be steep given that rookie Kaelon Black is positioned as RB2 with limited expected run, especially in the red zone. McCaffrey led all RBs last year in red zone rush attempts with 10 scores and had the fourth-most targets through the air with 25, hauling in 20 of them with seven in the end zone. His anytime TD prop is priced at 56% probability, representing one of the shorter prices expected in the touchdown market.
