Another precious player of the San Francisco 49ers has been injured. The game against the Cleveland Browns seems to be an unfortunate match for the team. They have already had two crucial players- Deebo Samuel and Trent Williams injured due to a shoulder injury and an ankle sprain, respectively.

Now, the situation could not be worse, and the 49ers Running Back, Christian McCaffrey, is injured as well. That also has a huge impact on the team’s QB- Brock Purdy. And the RB’s condition does not look very good either.

What happened to Christian McCaffrey?

The San Francisco 49ers’ RB, Christian McCaffrey, suffered an oblique injury during the game against the Browns in the third quarter. He was trying to loosen up on the sidelines, but after a medical evaluation, he was deemed questionable to return. However, he joined the game again for one play and gained some yards but was called back for a penalty. He then had to exit to the locker room for further examinations.

According to Dr. Jesse Morse, the running back had an oblique injury. He stated that the oblique muscles don’t usually cramp, and they are responsible for a twisting movement in the abdomen. McCaffrey was likely to return, but his every move on the field would be risky. Therefore, he has been ruled out of the game.

As per the doctor, the injury is similar to what Puca Nacua and Jaylen Waddle suffered before, and it would take around 21- 25 days to recover. With the Running Back suffering from an injury, the QB, Brock Purdy, is in great trouble.

Brock Purdy’s troubles

McCaffrey has a great connection with the quarterback, Brock Purdy, on the field. And his absence has severely affected the QB’s performance. There is no one else that Purdy works as well with as he does with Christian McCaffrey. Not to mention, there are other players injured as well, and that puts a lot of pressure on the QB.

Purdy has been facing criticism for not being able to keep up with his performance. The fans have been sarcastic about the matter and questioned why the MVP Candidate, Brock Purdy, is not able to elevate his team during this critical situation. This week is an extremely challenging one for the 49ers. Will they be able to win?
