Jerry McDonald has been with the Bay Area News Group for more than 30 years, with a heavy concentration of NFL football since the Raiders returned to Oakland in 1995. His all-time favorite athlete is a right-handed pitcher at Division III Linfield College in Oregon.
SANTA CLARA — The 49ers’ primary objective of getting to another Super Bowl and winning it is clear enough.
Let it be said the 49ers have their priorities in order. Setting things right for McCaffrey financially after all he’s given them was Job 1, and that includes the ongoing financial sagas of Trent Williams and Brandon Aiyuk. He is the favorite toy of head coach/offensive innovator Kyle Shanahan, the primary running-receiving satellite in the orbit of Purdy at quarterback.
It’s not McCaffrey’s nature to take offense to a question, but it’s clear he has zero interest in scaling back in 2024 after an NFL-high 339 touches last season. McCaffrey doesn’t look at his livelihood as a season-by-season existence. It consumes him on a how-many-hours-are-in-a-day basis.
