San Francisco 49ers superstar RB Christian McCaffrey couldn't hide his excitement for the 49ers' biggest offseason addition.

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey isn't that different from 49ers fans when it comes to his reaction to the signing of free agent wide receiver Mike Evans. McCaffrey in an appearance with Ian Rapoport on NFL Network described his feeling after he heard about the 49ers' addition of Evans early in free agency. "I was so fired up, man!

" McCaffrey said before describing why he's been a long-time Evans admirer. "He's somebody that, if you're a fan of football, you've watched his entire career and it's hard not to like the guy. He's a first ballot Hall of Famer.

He's somebody that, in my opinion, has never gotten enough credit, and I think he plays that way. He plays with a chip on his shoulder. He's one of the best go-ball runners in the history of the NFL.

He blocks his butt off. He's mean, and he's the perfect fit for our offense. I've just been such a fan of his from afar, and the way he plays football.
