But let’s face it: no one is like McCaffrey, who was the NFL’s offensive player of the year after a monster year of running and catching the football.
Which is why Niners fans are still waiting to see when he’ll return from Achilles tendinitis in both legs, an issue that landed him on the IR in Week 2. While he was eligible to return in Week 6, he didn’t come back yet.
So … what’s the latest?
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported earlier this week that “there’s a very good chance” that the 49ers running back is back after the Niners’ bye week after Sunday night’s game against the Dallas Cowboys.

So that would mean November 10 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Good news for the Niners and those who have him in fantasy football.
