Panthers' Christian McCaffrey (shoulder) expected to practice on Wednesday
Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey is expected to practice on Wednesday, according to NFL Network's Tom Pellissero.
What It Means:
McCaffrey is expected to participate in some way in Wednesday's practice, but his status for Week 12 remains up in the air. On Monday, Matt Rhule said they would take it "week to week" with McCaffrey, so a return to a limited practice would be a positive sign. Mike Davis will continue to fill in as the Panthers lead back while McCaffrey returns to full health.
The Panthers are 4.5-point underdogs against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 12. Their implied team total of 22.0 points is the sixth-lowest team total on Sunday's main slate, according to numberFire's DFS Heat Map.
