San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey is entering his 10th season, and he has not shown any signs of slowing down.
McCaffrey had a successful return last season after playing only four games in 2024 due to a knee injury. He picked up right where he left off, rushing for 1,202 yards and 10 touchdowns and receiving for 924 yards and seven touchdowns. He was named Comeback Player of the Year.
McCaffrey has always embraced the process, aware of the sacrifices that are needed to be great.
On Thursday, he shared on Instagram several pictures of his workout, displaying his toned physique.
The post quickly grabbed attention, with fans hailing the former Offensive Player of the Year.
“CMC IS HIM,” said @49ermac.
“OMG, the aura,” added @julianzapanta.
“What an aesthetic king you are,” wrote @joeedanyelle.
“Imagine not selecting this specimen in your 2026 fantasy football draft. Couldn’t be me #MyGoat,” wrote @tylerloesch.
“This guy is about to run a 75-yard TD in the first game,” predicted @916.richie.
“My dude out here training like (Jean Claude) Van Damme in ‘Kickboxer,’” stated @elkas49phan.
His teammates, fullback Kyle Juszczyk and wide receiver Ricky Pearsall, also commented. Juszczyk wrote, “Yup,” while Pearsall dropped a yoga emoji.
Taking care of his body is a non-negotiable for the 30-year-old McCaffrey, especially with the wear and tear he goes through every campaign.
The four-time All-Pro recently said he is not worried about the strain his body will go through again when the new season unfurls, even if the 49ers will give him a heavy load.
“We play 17 regular-season games a year, and everybody’s livelihoods are on the line. I would say on Sunday, you’ve got to do whatever it takes to win,” said McCaffrey.
The 49ers will face the Los Angeles Rams in their first assignment.
