Coach Matt Rhule said Monday that he expects McCaffrey (hamstring) to practice Wednesday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports. "Hopefully we can get [McCaffrey] back soon," Rhule said. "If it's not this week, hopefully it will be next week."
If McCaffrey is indeed able to log at least a limited session Wednesday, it will represent a notable step in the right direction. The star running back still has yet to officially be designated for a return from IR, and he's now missed five straight games due to his strained hamstring. Wednesday's first official practice report of the week stands to bring a more substantial update on McCaffrey's recovery progress.
