Just prior to Monday night's game against the New York Jets, the San Francisco 49ers announced Christian McCaffrey would be sitting out this game and likely next week as well.
The All-Pro running back Christian McCaffrey is suffering from a sore calf and Achilles tendon that has hampered him all summer.
McCaffrey got hurt early in training camp and missed four weeks of practice before returning to the field last week. He was listed as questionable and said he expected to play Monday night. But he was a surprise scratch for the game.
McCaffrey led the NFL last season with 2,023 yards from scrimmage and was tied for the league lead with 21 touchdowns, winning AP Offensive Player of the Year.
San Francisco also activated All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams to the 53-man roster after his lengthy contract holdout. Brandon Parker was released to make room.
Sportsbooks across the board voided straight bets while parlays featuring McCaffrey would be settled at the conclusion of Monday night's game.
The situation with McCaffrey brought back hard memories for Jets bettors last year who's Aaron Rodgers bets were not voided after he took a snap.
