McCaffrey (ankle) practiced again Friday and appears on track to play in Sunday's game against the Chiefs, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.
McCaffrey returned to practice last week, but he wasn't quite able to make it back for a Thursday night game against Atlanta. Ten days later, McCaffrey now looks ready to play, though his availability for Week 9 won't be confirmed until the Panthers officially activate him from injured reserve. While Mike Davis could still see some backfield work, McCaffrey is the much better bet to pile up carries, targets, yards and touchdowns.
