McCaffrey finished 2025 with a career-high 413 total touches (311 rushing, 102 receiving), leading the league by a healthy margin; Jonathan Taylor was second with 369 touches. The source attributes this spike to injuries and Brandon Aiyuk's decline, forcing McCaffrey into a larger pass-catching role than his pre-2025 average of 65-70 receptions per season. With the additions of Mike Evans, De'Zhaun Stribling, Deebo Samuel, and George Kittle's health, McCaffrey's receiving role is expected to normalize in 2026, potentially reducing his overall touch load.
