San Francisco 49ers star running back Christian McCaffrey has declared he’s “feeling great” as the team looks ahead to the 2025 NFL season, following a grueling and emotionally charged 2024 campaign. McCaffrey, who carried a heavy offensive load for the 49ers last season, has been working hard in the offseason to recover physically and mentally from what he described as one of the toughest stretches of his career.
The All-Pro running back was a crucial piece in the 49ers’ deep playoff run in 2024, showcasing his elite dual-threat abilities. However, the wear and tear of a high-volume role, combined with the emotional toll of falling short of a Super Bowl win, made the offseason reset especially important.
“I’m feeling great,” McCaffrey told reporters during a recent training session. “I’ve had time to get my body right, take care of the little things, and mentally recharge. I’m ready to go.”
McCaffrey’s words are encouraging for San Francisco fans who are hoping for another strong campaign in 2025. With a full offseason to heal and prepare, the 27-year-old looks set to continue his dominance in the backfield. His mindset and health could be key to the 49ers making another serious push for the Lombardi Trophy.
As training camp nears, all eyes will be on McCaffrey to see if his renewed energy translates to more electrifying performances on the field.
