McCaffrey left the snowy field in Buffalo on Sunday night after a 5-yard gain that was preceded by him heading to the sideline in apparent pain at the end of an 18-yard run. McCaffrey was diagnosed with a posterior cruciate ligament injury in his right knee and did not play in the second half. The 49ers also lost Jordan Mason, who emerged in a starting role with McCaffrey out the first two months of the season, to an ankle injury. Head coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Mason has a high-ankle sprain, which typically requires a recovery window of 4-6 weeks. Those moves push rookie Isaac Guerendo into the RB1 spot. He scored the team's only touchdown at Buffalo. The IR slots in San Francisco are manned by multiple starters, including wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk, linebacker Dre Greenlaw, defensive tackle Javon Hargrave and safety Talanoa Hufanga. Mason had a team-leading 789 rushing yards and scored three touchdowns. Being placed on IR means he's not eligible to play until the regular-season finale at Arizona. McCaffrey had 53 yards on seven carries on Sunday night and caught two passes for 14 yards before exiting. He was playing in just his fourth game of the season after missing the first eight because of Achilles tendinitis. McCaffrey was the NFL Offensive Player of the Year last season, when he led the league with 2,023 yards from scrimmage: a league-leading 1,459 rushing yards and 14 touchdowns plus 67 catches for 564 yards and seven scores. McCaffrey hasn't scored a touchdown in his four appearances this season. He has rushed for 202 yards on 50 carries and caught 15 passes for 146 yards. "It was frustrating," Shanahan said after the game. "He had a great week of practice and I could feel his urgency and stuff and thought he came out great, looking really good, and it looked like he just got his shoestring there. ... I hurt for him, and tough for our team not having him." The 49ers (5-7) played without defensive end Nick Bosa (oblique) and left tackle Trent Williams (ankle) in the 35-10 loss. San Francisco has lost three in a row heading into next Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears (4-8) in Santa Clara, Calif. San Francisco resides two games behind the NFC West-leading Seattle Seahawks (7-5) with five games remaining on the schedule. Seattle and San Francisco split their season series. --Field Level Media
Babcock & Wilcox Announces Leadership Appointments(The Center Square) – Thirteen of North Carolina’s 16 members of Congress are pushing the Pentagon to establish an onRamp Hub during the next round of expansions in the Defense Innovation Unit. Four of six branches of the armed forces are represented in the state with five military bases, a military ocean terminal and a U.S. Coast Guard base. Arizona, Ohio, Hawaii, Kansas and the state of Washington have the five onRamp Hubs in existence. According to the North Carolina Department of Commerce, the military supports 540,000 jobs, $30 billion in state personal income and $48 billion in gross state product. In a letter to Liz Young McNally, the deputy director of Commercial Operations for the Defense Innovation Unit, the North Carolinians on Thursday wrote in part , “North Carolina possesses strengths and capabilities contributing to a statewide defense innovation ecosystem, including defense-related research at our top-notch academic institutions.” North Carolina already has a regional presence for the Defense Innovation Unit with a National Security Innovation Network. According to the website of the Defense Innovation Unit, the hubs “serve as an open door to the Department of Defense; where academics, companies and entrepreneurs can learn how to enter the national security innovation base, discover how to access government programming and funding, and engage in national security events and opportunities. Through a national network of hubs, academic, business and defense organizations come together to develop solutions to problems and put new technologies directly in the hands of the warfighter.” Expansion is planned for Kentucky and Montana. The congressional delegation highlighted the partnerships with small businesses, “and awards for project prototypes to support unmanned aerial system projects and communication technologies.” Signatories are led by U.S. Sens. Ted Budd and Thom Tillis. Also signing were U.S. Reps. Deborah Ross, Richard Hudson, Virginia Foxx, Dr. Greg Murphy, Don Davis, Patrick McHenry, Alma Adams, Kathy Manning, David Rouzer, Wiley Nickel and Chuck Edwards. The lone members of the House from North Carolina not to sign were Reps. Valerie Foushee, Dan Bishop and Jeff Jackson.

Intel was another propellant during the morning, but it lost an early gain to fall 0.5% after the chip company said and stepped down from the board.

The stock market largely took latest threat on tariffs in stride. The president-elect on Saturday threatened against a group of developing economies if they act to undermine the U.S. dollar. Trump said he wants the group, headlined by Brazil, Russia, India and China, to promise it won’t create a new currency or otherwise try to undercut the U.S. dollar. The dollar has long been the currency of choice for global trade. Speculation has also been around a long time that other currencies could knock it off its mantle, but no contender has come close. The U.S. dollar’s value rose Monday against several other currencies, but one of its strongest moves likely had less to do with the tariff threats. The euro fell amid a political battle in Paris . The euro sank 0.7% against the U.S. dollar and broke below $1.05. In the bond market, Treasury yields gave up early gains to hold relatively steady. The yield on the 10-year Treasury climbed above 4.23% during the morning before falling back to 4.19%. That was just above its level of 4.18% late Friday. A report in the morning showed the U.S. manufacturing sector contracted again last month, but not by as much as economists expected. This upcoming week will bring several big updates on the job market, including the October job openings report, weekly unemployment benefits data and the all-important November jobs report. They could steer the next moves for which recently began to give support to the economy. Economists expect Friday’s headliner report to show U.S. employers accelerated their hiring in November, coming off that was hampered by damaging hurricanes and strikes. “We now find ourselves in the middle of this Goldilocks zone, where economic health supports earnings growth while remaining weak enough to justify potential Fed rate cuts,” according to Mark Hackett, chief of investment research at Nationwide. In financial markets abroad, Chinese stocks led gains worldwide as monthly surveys showed improving conditions for manufacturing, partly driven by a surge in orders ahead of Trump’s inauguration next month. Both official and private sector surveys of factory managers showed strong new orders and export orders, possibly partly linked to efforts by importers in the U.S. to beat potential tariff hikes by once he takes office. Indexes rose 0.7% in Hong Kong and 1.1% in Shanghai. AP Business Writers Matt Ott and Elaine Kurtenbach contributed.
