A clip of San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey turning down a post-game jersey swap with Minnesota Vikings defensive tackle Harrison Phillips has gone viral.
As you can see in the video below, Phillips was preparing to take off his jersey, hoping McCaffrey would engage in the traditional post-game swap. But the star running back awkwardly rejected Phillips’ request. And the Manning brothers, Peyton and Eli, had a field day with it on their ManningCast:
There’s a good chance McCaffrey will be asked about that, because it’s unusual for players to reject another’s wish to swap jerseys.
Monday night was a frustrating night for the 49ers, who fell 22-17 to the struggling Vikings. Losers of two straight, the 49ers will try to improve to 6-2 when they host the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday afternoon.
