CHARLOTTE, North Carolina — Before a reporter could go there with Carolina Panthers rookie running back Christian McCaffrey, right guard Trai Turner took it there. Turner rightly figured the discussion would turn to the fact that McCaffrey is among the handful of white players at his position in the NFL.
“Have you seen him run?” Turner asked. “If you’ve seen the guy run, you don’t think about it [his race]. White, black, red, green — I don’t care what color he is. He’s special.”
Nine games into his professional career, McCaffrey has flashed the talent that prompted the Panthers to select him in the top 10 of the 2017 draft. Carolina has steadily put more on McCaffrey within its offense, believing he’ll be a big part of the franchise’s future. Last week, McCaffrey had his best game, scoring his first rushing touchdown.

Doesn’t matter. The kneelers ruined the game.
The Pats have their own White Wonder in Rex Burkhead. Man can he get a football downfield.
Christian’s a cool guy though. He’ll be a rising star.
Went to school with his father and aunt. Great family!!!!
So far McCaffrey has been a bust. He runs a 4.5 to 4.6 forty yard dash. I hope he does better his second year but so far not to good.
True.
He’s a good boy. He gets attacked in the media for being “white privileged”, but ESPN has fallen in the SJW canard.
He’s a kaepernicking scumbag like the rest so who cares?
I didn’t realize running backs were sorted by color.
McCaffrey might make a good 3rd down receiver out of the backfield or in the slot. As a running back - forget about it.
Christian McCaffrey NFL stats 2017 rookie season:
117 ATT
435 YDS
3.7 AVG
2 RUSH TD
80 RECEPTIONS
651 REC YDS
8.1 REC AVG
5 REC TD
Most teams would like to have a “bust” that produces 80 receptions and 7 TDs in his rookie season.
Yes, this guy is a beast. He will produce good numbers.
If the Panthers can get rid of sCam Newton, they’d take one step closer to the promised land.
Who cares? All NFL personnel are slime. The NFL should move to North Korea, they have the Same attitude about the USA.
There are plenty of great white Running backs just like CM. They are screwed by recruiters. Zach Zenner is the ONLY running back in COLLEGE HISTORY to gave 3 straight 2,000 yard seasons. Incredible takent. Not even drafted! While scrub black players who didn’t even crack 1,000 yards total in college career are starting! The recruiring, scouting system is rigged against white skill players. A complete racist disgrace!
Love Rex Burkhead. He was a steal.
Yep. McCaffrey was horribly underutilized. Will be an incredible player especially if they get rid of scam.
Seems a long way from the days of Kiick and Csonka.
Baca bing
So he’s a credit to his race. How far we have regressed.
