Injured NFL star Christian McCaffrey of the San Francisco 49ers is hoping for help in Germany. The highest-paid running back in the National Football League flew to Germany at the weekend to have his irritated Achilles tendon examined and treated by a specialist. “I’m not sure which doctor it is, I just know that he will see a specialist who can help him with the Achilles tendon problems. He’s doing that over the next few days and I hope it will help,” said 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan.
McCaffrey has been struggling with the problem since the start of preseason training and has not played a single minute this season. Without him, the 49ers have lost two of their three games so far this season. On Sunday, they lost 24:27 to the Los Angeles Rams.
