Injury update on 49ers RB Christian McCaffrey, won’t be activated for week 6, has chance to play week 7

Adam Schefter of ESPN has reported that 49ers star running back Christian McCaffrey won’t be activated off of injured reserve for next Thursday nights game in Seattle, against the Seahawks, but he does have a chance to play week 7 when the 49ers play the Kansas City Chiefs, at home.

This would be a huge boost for the 49ers if they’re able to get McCaffrey back for what will be a huge game, plus if the 49ers can get through these next 2 games, winning both, & also little to no injuries, then the 49ers could for the first time, be at full strength on offense.

Of course they w0n’t have nose tackle Javon Hargrave, who suffered a partial torn triceps in week 3, but this would be the 0ne game where the 49ers could be nearly at their fullest strength.
