49ers OC Klay Kubiak says George Kittle “looks good” for Week 1, adding that the veteran tight end’s workload will be determined after two more practices. Kittle appears on track to suit up against the Rams, but the snap count question matters after his recent injury absence and creates some early season volatility.
PlayerProfiler’s TE12 still shows the elite ceiling with a 24.6% target rate and 13 red zone targets in his previous season, reinforcing what Kittle can do when given a full workload. Kittle is trending toward playing, but fantasy managers should price in a reduced workload until the 49ers prove they are ready to unleash him. Until then, expect Jake Tonges to fill in and Brock Purdy to spread his passes out.
