49ers' Christian McCaffrey Faces Uncertain Return Due to Achilles Tendinitis

The star running back is dealing with bilateral Achilles tendinitis, with hopes for a November return, but no definitive timeline is set.

Christian McCaffrey is suffering from Achilles tendinitis in both legs, complicating his return to the field.
The San Francisco 49ers placed McCaffrey on injured reserve after Week 1, and he has not played this season.
McCaffrey traveled to Germany for specialized treatment and may start running on hard ground soon.
Team officials hope McCaffrey can return by early November, but his exact timeline remains uncertain.
Backup running back Jordan Mason has performed well in McCaffrey's absence, helping the 49ers maintain offensive production.
