For the first time since 2019, Kittle topped the 1,000-yard mark, putting up a 65-1020-6 line -- he was the only tight end to surpass 1,000 yards last year. That's the good news. The bad news is his week-to-week production was all over the place. Three times last year he reached triple digits. Four times he was held below 20 yards. You simply didn't see that kind of variance from other top guys at the position such as Kansas City's Travis Kelce, Detroit's Sam LaPorta, or Minnesota's T.J. Hockenson (knee) before he tore his ACL. It's an offshoot of playing in an offense with so many dynamic weapons, and it's not something that's likely to change.
Heading into his age-31 season, Kittle is a proven commodity. He's been mostly durable during his career, though he's only appeared in every game once in seven seasons, and he has averaged 960 yards and 6 TDs over the last six. The recent influx of talent at the position (LaPorta, Trey McBride, Dalton Kincaid, Kyle Pitts, Jake Ferguson) makes ranking Kittle a bit more subjective. He's undeniably a TE1, and you could absolutely justify him as one of the top six. You could also drop him to borderline top-10 status if you preferred one of those younger options with a higher ceiling.

 George Kittle unlikely to play in Week 11
Hamstring injury
By: Mike Krueger | Sun Nov 17, 2:17 am
|  | 49ers TE George Kittle, who is questionable for Sunday's game due to a hamstring injury, is unlikely to play vs. the Seahawks, per sources.
The 49ers want to see how Kittle is feeling pregame before making any final decision, per sources. But they are not optimistic that their Pro-Bowl tight end will be available versus Seattle. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Kittle missed practice Wednesday and was limited on Thursday and Friday before being listed Questionable on the injury report. TE Eric Saubert had 2 catches for 41 yards when Kittle missed Week 3 with a hamstring injury. He won't be a recommended fantasy option. McCaffrey, Deebo, Jennings and Pearsall should soak up most of Kittle's production.
| George Kittle diagnosed with sprained foot
Considered day-to-day
By: Doug Orth | Mon Oct 21, 11:50 pm
| | George Kittle has a sprained foot and is considered day to day. (ESPN - Adam Schefter)
FFToday's Take: Kittle was the only key pass-catcher to finish the game for the 49ers in Week 7 and may be the only one that has a chance to suit up in Week 8. Deebo Samuel (illness) most likely not play and Brandon Aiyuk (knee) is done for the season, while Christian McCaffrey (Achilles) probably won't be ready to go until after the team's Week 9 bye. Assuming Kittle can play through his injury, he is in great shape to be a top-five fantasy tight end again in Week 8 against the Cowboys. If not, Eric Saubert could be an option in tight end premium leagues.
| Deebo Samuel expected to play in Week 4
Calf injury
By: Mike Krueger | Sat Sep 28, 11:28 pm
| | San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel is expected to play Sunday against the New England Patriots, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Samuel missed the 49ers' loss to the Los Angeles Rams last weekend with a calf injury. (ESPN)
FFToday's Take: Deebo missed last week with a calf issue but is expected to play along with TE George Kittle (hamstring) in Week 4. The two returning pass catchers offer a nice boost to QB Brock Purdy who is on the low-end QB1 radar. It remains to be seen if Deebo will be limited in his return, but he's a viable WR2 play if at full strength.
| George Kittle expected to play in Week 4
TE missed Week 3 with a hamstring injury
By: Mike Krueger | Fri Sep 27, 4:57 pm
| | 49ers TE George Kittle and QB Brock Purdy are off the injury report and expected to play Sunday vs. the Patriots.
Deebo Samuel is being listed as questionable for Sunday. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: The 49ers will get at least one of their offensive weapons back and may get Deebo back as well. Kittle missed Week 3 with a hamstring injury and Deebo has missed the last two games with a calf issue. Samuel practiced on a limited basis both Thursday and Friday. We should get more info on his status Saturday evening or Sunday morning.
