Strong finish to regular season McCaffrey caught 12 passes for 141 yards and a touchdown and rushed two times for 31 yards during Saturday's 24-21 victory over Florida Atlantic.
Impact McCaffery had one of his best outings of the season in Saturday's regular season finale as he caught a season-high 12 passes for 141 yards -- his second most in a game this season -- and a touchdown, his 12th of the season which is tied for the seventh most in the country. AJ Padgett used him as a security blanket all day, as half of his completions and more than half of his yards went to McCaffery. Regardless of who the Owls' play in the team's bowl game, McCaffery is set to be a massive factor.

Another touchdown Saturday McCaffrey hauled in five of eight targets for 54 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 28-7 victory against Charlotte. He also rushed one time for 40 yards.
Impact McCaffery scored his 11th receiving touchdown of the season Saturday, a 20-yard reception late in the fourth quarter. It marked his sixth consecutive game with a touchdown reception, and he is now tied for seventh in the country in that category. He also had a 40-yard rush in the game, his longest this season. Next up he faces Florida Atlantic Saturday in the regular season finale.
NOVEMBER 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Scores again in Saturday's loss McCaffrey gathered in 6 of 10 targets for 68 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 34-14 loss versus Texas-San Antonio.
Impact McCaffrey scored his 10th touchdown of the season Saturday, a 27-yard pass from AJ Padgett just before halftime. Padgett, who made his first start of the season, targeting McCaffrey 10 times, the fourth time this season he has seen double digit targets. He is not tied for seventh in the country in receiving touchdowns and will look to add to that total Saturday at Charlotte.
NOVEMBER 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Scores again Saturday McCaffrey reeled in four of five targets for eight yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 36-31 loss versus Southern Methodist.
Impact McCaffery scored his ninth receiving touchdown of the season Saturday, tied for the ninth most in the country and second only to Ja'Mori Maclin in the AAC. Outside of his touchdown catch it was a very slow day for McCaffery. On four catches he gained only eight yards as the SMU defense did not allow him to get going. He will look to bounce back Saturday at UTSA.
NOVEMBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Another touchdown Saturday McCaffrey tallied five receptions (on six targets) for 79 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 30-28 loss against Tulane.
Impact McCaffery scored his eighth touchdown of the season Saturday, a 35-yard touchdown with eight minutes left in the fourth quarter which cut the Green Wave's lead to just two points. Even though Tulane boasts the toughest defense he has faced since Week 1 at Texas, McCaffery appears to be more or less matchup proof. That will be put to the test again Saturday as SMU has given up just 166 passing yards per game this season.
OCTOBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Scores again Thursday McCaffrey caught six passes for 99 yards and a touchdown during Thursday's 42-10 victory over Tulsa.
Impact McCaffery scored his seventh touchdown of the season Thursday, a 21-yard reception from JT Daniels in the first quarter. He reached 99 yards for the fourth time in the last six games, proving once again to be Daniels' most consistent outlet. He faces a tougher defense next Saturday in No. 23 Tulane, but if the Owls fall into a deficit as expected, the team is likely to throw the ball a lot versus the Green Wave.
OCTOBER 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Has 67 yards receiving McCaffrey caught seven passes for 67 yards and had one rush for 11 yards against USM in Saturday's LendingTree Bowl.
Impact McCaffrey had missed the previous three games with an ankle injury. The former Nebraska quarterback played running back for Rice last season, but in his first season as a receiver he had 58 catches for 723 yards and six scores in 10 games.
DECEMBER 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Tallies 38 yards receiving McCaffrey caught five passes for 38 yards against UAB on Saturday.
Impact This is a step down for McCaffrey after two games with over 100 yards receiving. However, he still led the Owls in receptions and receiving yards, which is a positive sign.
OCTOBER 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Catches TD McCaffrey caught seven passes for 121 yards an a touchdown against Houston on Saturday. He also rushed once for 13 yards.
Impact Maybe what McCaffrey needed to do the whole time was follow in his father's footsteps. He has a knack for playing wide receiver. Through four games he has 26 catches for 323 yards and three touchdowns.
SEPTEMBER 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
First big game as receiver McCaffrey caught 10 passes for 105 yards and two touchdowns versus Louisiana on Saturday. He also rushed twice for 26 yards.
Impact The former quarterback was moved to receiver for good prior to this season. He's eased into the role well, as he has 19 catches for 202 yards through three games.
