Christian Jackson McCaffrey (born June 7, 1996), known by the initials CMC,[1] is an American professional football running back for the San Francisco 49ers of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the Stanford Cardinal and was selected by the Carolina Panthers eighth overall in the 2017 NFL draft. As a sophomore in 2015, McCaffrey was named AP College Football Player of the Year and was a finalist for the Heisman Trophy. He holds the NCAA record for most all-purpose yards in a season (3,864).
McCaffrey holds numerous NFL and Panthers franchise records and is one of three players ever to record 1,000 rushing and 1,000 receiving yards in the same season, doing so in 2019. McCaffrey was traded to the 49ers in 2022 and was named the Offensive Player of the Year a year later after leading the league in scrimmage yards and touchdowns en route to an appearance in Super Bowl LVIII. A member of the McCaffrey football family, he is the son of Ed and brother of Max, Dylan, and Luke.
