The San Francisco 49ers defeated the New York Giants 34-24, improving their season record to 6-3. Christian McCaffrey set NFL records with dual rushing and receiving touchdowns in 16 games. McCaffrey surpassed Hall of Famers Faulk, Brown and Holmes for multiple significant performance milestones.

He’s now got 596 yards rushing and 626 yards receiving, making him just the third player in NFL history and the second ever in franchise history with at least 500 rushing and receiving yards through the first nine games of the season, joining 49ers legend Roger Craig and Philadelphia Eagles RB Saquon Barkley.

High point totals mean opportunity, and several key matchups stand out as potential fantasy goldmines in Week 10. Week 10 of the NFL season is already upon us, and the challenge of setting lineups and finding an edge in fantasy football only becomes greater than the week before.

The San Francisco 49ers need to improve their pass rush, and they could go back and target another edge rusher in the 2026 NFL draft.

Bethune was called for an unnecessary roughness penalty for a tackle on QB Jaxson Dart.

The San Francisco 49ers have been winning games despite significant injuries to key players. On Sunday, first-round pick Mykel Williams suffered a season-ending knee injury in a victory over the New York Giants.

In Week 6, Malik Mustapha came back. The 49ers used Sigle in a platoon with Mustapha for two games, but once Mustapha took his role back over, there were no more snaps for Sigle. The 49ers move Ji’Ayir Brown into the starting lineup and slide Jason Pinnock into the nickel, making Sigle the fourth safety.

On a more positive note, there are some previously injured players who are set to make their return in Week 9. After being sidelined since Week 2, Minnesota will bring back quarterback J.J. McCarthy, while the Los Angeles Rams will welcome back star wideout Puka Nacua.
