| Sources: 49ers are placing Pro Bowl TE George Kittle on injured reserve, meaning he now will miss at least the next four games. Kittle injured his hamstring during Sunday’s win over Seattle and now will miss games at New Orleans, vs. Atlanta, Jacksonville and at the Rams. (ESPN - Adam Schefter)
FFToday's Take: The 49ers did not need any more bad injury news, but they got it. With Brandon Aiyuk (knee) and Kittle sidelined until at least October and Brock Purdy (finger, shoulder) as well as Jauan Jennings (shoulder) very questionable for Week 2, San Francisco could be down to Christian McCaffrey and Ricky Pearsall as the only notable playmakers against the Saints. Luke Farrell and Jake Tonges will likely split snaps at tight end in Kittle's absence, but neither is worth considering in fantasy.
