San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey is one of the best players at any position in the NFL, and his Thanksgiving game against the Seattle Seahawks further proved why.
McCaffrey had two touchdowns before halftime against a stout Seattle defense, making this one of his most ferocious performances of the season so far.
During the game, McCaffrey also had a really funny clip hit the NBC broadcast of 49ers team staff tightening the screws on his helmet during a game break.
The moment had everyone making the same joke: that McCaffrey is so good at football that he has to be a robot.

Hey, McCaffrey might not be a cyborg, but he is absolutely robotic in the way he just continuously excels on the football field.
It does feel like the 49ers superstar never hits a false step, and it wouldn’t surprise us if “football robot” is a nickname that sticks in the years to come.
