RB Christian McCaffrey took around three-fourths of the snaps for a third straight week, though his opportunity share (70%) dipped slightly compared to 77% in the previous game. Kaelon Black's role has fallen off since Week 2, but so has McCaffrey's target rate in an offense that increasingly seems focused on WR Mike Evans and TE George Kittle.

McCaffrey's opportunity share declining; target rate down as 49ers focus shifts to Evans and Kittle.

McCaffrey took around three-fourths of snaps for a third straight week, though his opportunity share dipped to 70% from 77% the previous game; his target rate has declined in an offense increasingly focused on WR Mike Evans and TE George Kittle, and the source notes this was a spot where McCaffrey might've returned to his old role but didn't, suggesting it probably won't happen this season unless the Week 18 game against the Rams decides the NFC West.
