NFL fans call Christian McCaffrey by multiple names, but former NFL running back Marshawn Lynch has an interesting nickname for the San Francisco 49ers star.

Lynch unveiled this nickname during his latest appearance on the "ManningCast" with Peyton and Eli Manning, which began with him dropping some curse words on air after being specifically asked to keep it clean.
"Yeah, my little Snow Bunny be getting active too," the former Seahawks star said as the ESPN cameras showed McCaffrey. "I know he be doing his thing."

At this point, Peyton interrupted Lynch to ask some pressing questions. First off, is Snow Bunny Lynch's nickname for the two-time All-Pro?
"Your face was like 'What the...'" Lynch said while laughing. "Nah, that's my little Snow Bunny cuz, man. He be doing his thing."
As it turns out, this is not the only player that Lynch referred to with this nickname. He also highlighted Seahawks linebacker Drake Thomas, who intercepted a pass that bounced off McCaffrey's hands.
"Yeah, look, Snow Bunny to a Snow Bunny," Lynch said after watching a replay of Brock Purdy's pass bouncing off McCaffrey's hands and into Thomas's arms.
Nickname aside, Lynch knows a productive running back when he sees one. After all, he produced at the highest levels for multiple teams while winning one Super Bowl.
Lynch spent 12 years in the NFL split between the Buffalo Bills, Seattle Seahawks, and then-Oakland Raiders. He rushed for more than 10,000 yards and 85 touchdowns while earning All-Pro honors one time.
He also delivered one of the most memorable plays in NFL history when he rushed for a 67-yard touchdown against the New Orleans Saints. Lynch broke nine tackles during this playoff game while the fans celebrated so much that they registered on a nearby seismometer.
McCaffrey, a two-time All-Pro has only played in nine NFL seasons and missed the majority of four. Yet, he has delivered at a significant rate for the 49ers.
He has rushed for more than 1,000 yards five times and scored 62 times on the ground. He has also delivered three 100-catch seasons while posting 5,390 receiving yards and 36 touchdowns.
