NFL Week 2 injuries: 49ers’ Christian McCaffrey ruled out vs. Vikings; Packers’ Jordan Love questionable

The NFL season is officially back, but unfortunately, that means injuries are as well. It’s been just one week, but all 32 NFL teams are dealing with different ailments — some more serious than others.
