Christian McCaffrey’s latest injury has ended his season.
On Monday, the Carolina Panthers announced that their star running back has been placed on the injured reserve list for the second time this season.
McCaffrey suffered his latest ankle injury in Sunday’s Week 12 loss to the Miami Dolphins and an MRI on Monday morning revealed the damage was severe enough to end his 2021 campaign. The news means McCaffrey will miss out on the Panthers’ final five regular-season games after the bye week.

McCaffrey missed five games earlier this season due to a hamstring.
The star running back finishes his 2021 campaign with 442 rushing yards, 37 catches for 343 yards, and two touchdowns in seven games.
