San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey was the central focus of his team's offense in a 17-13 49ers' win over the Seattle Seahawks in Week 1. McCaffrey rushed 22 times for 69 yards and caught nine passes for 73 yards, a comforting sign for fantasy managers who might have been worried that a lingering calf issue would lead to San Francisco limiting his touches early in the season. The 49ers lost two offensive weapons in George Kittle (groin) and Jauan Jennings (shoulder) during the game. If Kittle and Jennings miss time going forward, San Francisco could be forced to lean on McCaffrey just as heavily in the weeks to come. As long as he's on the field, he's a must-start fantasy running back with game-breaking upside.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (chest) exited during the fourth quarter of Sunday's Week 1 contest against the Arizona Cardinals. The team announced that he was questionable, but he quickly returned to the contest. Olave will re-assume his role as the Saints' No. 1 wide receiver ahead of Rashid Shaheed. Given his role in a subpar Spencer Rattler-led offense, Olave should merely be viewed as a high-end WR3/FLEX option in fantasy football.
Still trying to decide between McCaffrey and Olave? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Christian McCaffrey is projected to score 17.2 points this week while Chris Olave is projected to score 15.1 points.
