McCaffrey (knee) participated in full practice on Friday and was removed from the final injury report.
He’ll play in Week 17 and rank as an RB1 in fantasy football, but the 49ers may lighten his workload if they take an early lead against the Raiders.

3. Rhamondre Stevenson
On Friday, Stevenson (ankle) was limited in practice. He is officially listed as questionable for Week 17, but he is expected to play, as he did in the Patriots’ first 15 games. If active, the second-year back is a fantasy football fringe top-12 back.
