2024 Outlook
Depth Chart
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.

News From The Past 90 Days
Injury Deebo Samuel expected to play in Week 4
Calf injury
By: Mike Krueger | Sat Sep 28, 11:28 pm

San Francisco
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.


Injury George Kittle expected to play in Week 4
TE missed Week 3 with a hamstring injury

San Francisco
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.


Injury George Kittle misses practice Thursday, hamstring
49ers down three offensive weapons
By: Mike Krueger | Thu Sep 19, 4:08 pm

San Francisco
49ers TE George Kittle was not spotted at practice today and is experiencing tightness in his hamstring, per source. With no practice today, his status for Sunday’s game vs. the Rams is in question. (Adam Schefter on X)

FFToday's Take: Yet another injury for San Fransisco. In addition to Christian McCaffrey and Deebo Samuel, the 49ers are likely to be without Kittle for their Week 3 matchup against the Rams. Eric Saubert has been working as the backup tight end but has just 3 targets in two games.


Injury Deebo Samuel expected to miss multiple games
Suffered a calf strain in Week 2
By: Doug Orth | Mon Sep 16, 11:30 pm

San Francisco
More: 49ers WR Deebo Samuel strained his calf Sunday and is expected to miss a couple weeks, per HC Kyle Shanahan. (ESPN - Adam Schefter)

FFToday's Take: A "couple weeks" suggests that Samuel is dealing with a Grade 1 strain, since a Grade 2 strain usually means an athlete will be sidelined for at least a month. San Francisco will almost certainly rely more heavily on George Kittle and Brandon Aiyuk in the passing game now without Samuel around. Jauan Jennings will start in Samuel's place and could be worth starting in deeper leagues. Considering how often Samuel was seeing work out of the backfield, look for rookie Isaac Guerendo to spell Jordan Mason.
