49ers running back Christian McCaffrey set an NFL record in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s game at MetLife Stadium.
McCaffrey ran for a three-yard score to put the 49ers up on the Giants 34-17 with 4:13 left to play and that gave him 16 career games with both a rushing and a receiving score. That broke a tie with Marshall Faulk for the most in NFL history.
McCaffrey opened the 49ers scoring with a touchdown catch in the first quarter and he’s picked up 164 yards from scrimmage to help the 49ers to their big lead.
Barring a meltdown similar to the one the Giants pulled off in Denver, it will also help them to a 6-3 record on the season.
