Rams, 49ers Implicated In Christian McCaffrey's Trade Market
2 years agoThe Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers have been implicated in Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey's trade market. The Panthers were open to dealing McCaffrey in the offseason, according to sources with multiple teams, so a move now wouldn't be a big surprise. He's available under the right terms, but it'll likely take a first-round pick or more. The Panthers restructured McCaffrey's contract in March, pushing his base salary to around the minimum. It means a team acquiring McCaffrey would owe him a prorated version of $1.12 million this year. His contract becomes more complicated in 2023, but if a team is looking for a one-year rental to spark a championship offense, CMC might be a perfect fit. Through six games this year, McCaffrey has 85 carries for 393 yards and two touchdowns while adding 33 receptions for 277 yards and another score.
