Christian McCaffrey Doubtful To Play Week 10

Christian McCaffrey injured his shoulder last week against Kansas City on his 27th touch of the game. The star running back had just returned from a Week 2 high ankle sprain that held him out six weeks. We believe McCaffrey likely suffered a AC joint injury in his shoulder and it appears the Panthers are going to be very conservative with their young star. At first, we thought this shoulder injury would not keep him out of Week 10, however it doesn’t appear the Panthers are going to allow him to play with a pain killing injection or play at all. McCaffrey is likely eager to play, but since the team is not in the position to fight for a Super Bowl, the team can be ultra conservative with McCaffrey.  He is seeking a second opinion but we doubt surgery will be seriously discussed. We are expecting McCaffrey to be out until his shoulder is at 100%, as that was the case with his ankle injury.
