Christian McCaffrey has been named alongside four quarterbacks, including Matthew Stafford and Drake Maye, as a finalist for the NFL's MVP award.
The San Francisco 49ers running back is a finalist to win Offensive Player of the Year, Comeback Player of the Year and league MVP, the latter for which Trevor Lawrence and Josh Allen are also nominated.
McCaffrey ranked second in scrimmage yards this season as he rushed for 1,202 yards and 10 touchdowns while making 102 catches for 924 yards and seven scores.
The winners will be announced at NFL Honours on February 5.
