The star running back remains uncertain for a return, with the team focusing on a cautious recovery plan.

Christian McCaffrey has been sidelined for the first three games due to Achilles tendinitis.
McCaffrey recently traveled to Germany for specialized treatment, which was approved by the 49ers.
49ers GM John Lynch and HC Kyle Shanahan have not provided a clear timeline for McCaffrey's return.
McCaffrey is eligible to return in Week 6, but his participation remains doubtful until at least after Week 9.
Jordan Mason has been stepping up in McCaffrey's absence, recording the second-most rushing yards in the league.
