McCaffrey caught two of three targets for 25 yards in the second half of a preseason loss to the Jets on Saturday.
The third-round pick played 31 snaps, with nearly all of those coming in the second half as part of the third- and fourth-string offenses. That's not usually the best sign in terms of Week 1 role, but it matters less for a rookie, especially during the opening week of the preseason. McCaffrey is still a candidate to eventually earn a top-3 role in a WR room where nothing appears guaranteed besides Terry McLaurin being the No. 1.
