Gashed Falcons defense on opening drive; combined with Kaelon Black for 102 yards on just 19 carries; injury knocked him out for a while and limited him the rest of the way, extinguishing 49ers' run game enthusiasm as they fell behind.NegativeUsageOct 25, 2026
Christian McCaffrey was heavily involved in the 49ers offense with multiple touches: took it up the gut for nine yards, caught a pass for five yards working against Falcons defender Perkins, caught another pass just shy of a touchdown, and received a low and early pass attempt that fell incomplete. Mixed success with both rushing and receiving work.NegativeUsageOct 25, 2026
McCaffrey was heavily involved in the 49ers' offensive attack despite the loss, evading defenders for five yards, plunging up the middle, picking up 14 yards, catching passes over the middle for 16 yards and 24 yards, leaping over the top of the defense for a touchdown on fourth down, and making a fully extended sideline grab for five yards; he also had a fumble with an assist from Xavier Watts.PositiveUsageOct 24, 2026
McCaffrey was left uncovered on a crucial 3rd-and-13 play with just over two minutes remaining in the game, gaining an easy 17 yards and scoring a touchdown on the next play to seal San Francisco's 13-10 victory over Atlanta; the play resulted from the Falcons lining up with only 10 men on the field.NegativeMatchupOct 23, 2026
Christian McCaffrey has historically been difficult for the Falcons to stop and is part of an excellent tandem with Kaelon Black in 2026. McCaffrey and George Kittle take significant pressure off the 49ers' depleted receiving corps and raise the urgency for the Falcons to be very sharp in coverage. The 49ers will be intent on achieving balance with McCaffrey and Black, forcing Atlanta to decide whether to sell out against the run.
