Trading for Christian McCaffrey might go down as one of the greatest moves in San Francisco 49ers history.
The former Carolina Panthers star has been one of the most disruptive offensive players in the game since he entered the league, and he has shown no signs of slowing down.
That’s why, with the NFL season just around the corner, he made the most of the offseason to tie the knot and get married to his longtime girlfriend, Olivia Culpo (via MLFootball).

McCaffrey and the Niners will be on a mission to bounce back from last season’s heartbreaking Super Bowl loss and finish the job this time.
He’s coming off the best season of his career, which is a lot to say.
He should’ve won MVP after posting video game-like numbers, but with that being a quarterback’s award lately, he had to settle for the NFL’s Offensive Player of the Year award.
This has been quite an eventful offseason for the Stanford product.
Not only was he chosen to be the cover athlete for the new edition of Madden, but he also signed a very lucrative contract extension that will keep him tied to the Niners organization through 2027, all while making him the highest-paid running back in the game.
He was on the field for over 80% of his team’s offensive snaps and was the focal point in Kyle Shanahan’s offense, and it doesn’t seem like that approach is going to change any time soon, at least not while he’s healthy.
