Kaelon Black’s Injury Recovery | NFL News

Rookie running back Kaelon Black’s abductor strain sidelines him at a critical juncture, threatening his chance to step in as Christian McCaffrey’s backup. With key teammate Jordan James also out, Black’s missed practice time puts him at a steep disadvantage. But offensive coordinator Klay Kubiak is confident—Black’s relentless work ethic and mental engagement during recovery show he’s built for this. Kubiak praises Black’s Indiana roots and professionalism, betting he’ll catch up fast once healthy. The real test? Staying sharp mentally while healing physically—because for Black, preparation might just be the secret weapon that gets him back on track.
