STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

McCaffrey benefits from Robinson and Stribling injuries.

Expected to soak up additional volume with Demarcus Robinson sidelined by high-ankle sprain and De'Zhaun Stribling out with ankle injury requiring surgery. Should Evans miss more time, volume further concentrated on McCaffrey, George Kittle, and Deebo Samuel.
