San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey is closing in on a historic NFL milestone. He has a chance to become the first player in league history to record multiple 1,000-1,000 seasons—1,000 rushing yards and 1,000 receiving yards in the same campaign. McCaffrey first accomplished the rare feat in 2019 and is on pace to do it again in 2025.

"That'd be huge, just more so for Christian, just continuing to rewrite the history books," left tackle Trent Williams told reporters on Wednesday. "He's a transcendent talent, and we're lucky to be around him, lucky to have him. Obviously, more happy for Christian, but it would be good to be a part of history."


Another offensive lineman, right tackle Colton McKivitz, would love to see McCaffrey get the record.

"It'd be awesome," McKivitz said. "I think him and Marshall Faulk are running around together right now. So, you want to get your guys in the end zone, and yardage, and all that. So, if that's something he can achieve, you want to be a part of that. It would be a pretty cool experience for all of us."

Despite the buzz, McCaffrey isn't thinking about records. The 49ers star remains laser-focused on this week's matchup against the Tennessee Titans, doing everything he can to help San Francisco secure a crucial Week 15 victory.

At 9-4, the 49ers are in a strong position to return to the postseason, and they'll play three of their final four regular-season games at home. Still, McCaffrey refuses to look beyond this weekend.

"I think the best thing our team can do for these next four games is take this one day at a time," McCaffrey said. "We're focused on one game, and that's Tennessee. We don't look to the future or anything else other than having a great practice today and focus on the Tennessee Titans this weekend."


McCaffrey has 13 total touchdowns this season and has scored in three of the last four games.

"I think it's just been Christian for the length of his career," Williams said. "He's always had a nose for the end zone. He's always found a way to get in the end zone, and he's enabled the offensive coordinator to be able to do a large array of things with him, and put him in different spots, and get him in mismatches. And it helps allow him to get high touchdown numbers like he's getting."

When asked about his recent production as the 49ers push toward the playoffs, McCaffrey kept his response simple.

"I just take it one game at a time," the running back said. "You never know what can happen in a game. For me, it's just about seeing it and hitting it, and seeing what happens at the end of the day."

One 49ers teammate pushed back on the idea that the 29-year-old McCaffrey might be starting to slow down in his ninth NFL season.


"Christian, I still think he's got years left on the legs," Kittle said this week. "He still looks great. You should see the way that he works out, the way that he trains, the way that he takes care of his body in the offseason. He's very dialed in."
