One picture revealed that Christian McCaffrey had spent his entire life surrounded by NFL greats.
When McCaffrey was a small child, the Denver Broncos locker room helped him become used to an NFL locker room in the late 1990s.
Shannon Sharpe recently shared a snapshot from his past with football fans, sending them on a nostalgic trip. The picture showed a young Christian McCaffrey, who was only a toddler at the time.
The 1999 Super Bowl XXXIII photo features Sharpe with a 2 1/2-year-old Christian McCaffrey, both wearing retro sunglasses and a Broncos hat.
What a photo…..

During his 13-year tenure with the Broncos, Ed McCaffrey had three seasons in which he gained more than 1,000 yards.
We may take McCaffrey’s 1,459 rushing yards and 14 rushing touchdowns as a conclusion for the 2023 season, because the 49ers are sitting their starters out until Week 18. In addition, he added seven receiving touchdowns and 67 catches for 564 yards.
He recorded five multi-touchdown games and 12 games with at least 100 all-purpose yards in the 2023 campaign.
