Christian McCaffrey Week 12 Outlook - Vikings at 49ers

By Pat Fitzmaurice (FantasyPros), Thu, Nov 25th 2021, 5:53am EST

After limiting McCaffrey's snaps in Week 9 and 10 following his return from a hamstring injury, the Panthers gave CMC a 90% snap share in Week 11. It was hard to tell the difference based on touch counts alone. McCaffrey had 18 touches on 29 snaps in Week 9, 23 touches on 44 snaps in Week 10, and 17 touches on 46 snaps in Week 10. The workload is secure, and McCaffrey's soft tissue has been cooperating. He's averaged 18.4 fantasy points per game since making his return, and he's ranked RB1 this week against the Dolphins. CMC is a compelling DraftKings play at $9,000.
