He played at Rice, where he excelled as a receiver, leading to his third-round draft selection. McCaffrey aimed to impress NFL scouts by outperforming his brother Christian's combine numbers. He ran a faster 40-yard dash and matched or exceeded his brother's other performance metrics, showcasing his speed and athleticism.
