George Kittle's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (toe) was listed as a non-participant on the team's estimated practice report on Wednesday. Kittle came out of the NFC Championship win over the Detroit Lions on Sunday with a minor toe injury, and head coach Kyle Shanahan called him day-to-day on Monday. The Niners will likely give Kittle some rest this week, but there's no reason why he shouldn't be ready to rock for the Super Bowl on Feb. 11 against the Kansas City Chiefs. The 30-year-old led all tight ends in total yards during the regular season and has caught six passes (10 targets) for 108 yards and a touchdown in two playoff games leading into the Super Bowl.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (toe) is dealing with a toe issue and will be considered day-to-day as Super Bowl LVIII approaches in two weeks, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan. Kittle was on the field often in Sunday's win over the Detroit Lions in the NFC Championship, but he apparently picked up a toe injury and disappointed fantasy managers with just two catches on three targets for 27 yards despite the Niners coming from behind to put up 34 points. The 30-year-old has plenty of time to rest his toe before the Super Bowl in Vegas, but we'll keep a close eye on his practice status. It would be a huge surprise if Kittle didn't suit up on Super Bowl Sunday on Feb. 11, and he should be more involved in the passing game against a tough Chiefs defense.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle is much happier than his fantasy managers after the team's comeback victory over the Detroit Lions in the NFC Championship Game on Sunday. The 30-year-old will be heading to Las Vegas in two weeks for a date with the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl XLIII despite a subdued statistical performance. Kittle finished with two receptions on three targets for 27 yards. With a monster day in Baltimore on Sunday, Kansas City's Travis Kelce probably solidified his spot as the top Super Bowl fantasy option at tight end, but Kittle will bring plenty of juice to the matchup as well. Depending on the price, Kittle may be the better value of the two for DFS gamers in the rematch of Super Bowl LIV, as he looks to surpass the four-catch, 36-yard performance he posted four years ago.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle played a key role in the team's 24-21 victory over the Green Bay Packers last week, posting four catches on seven targets for 81 yards and a touchdown. He'll look to keep the good times rolling in a favorable matchup on Sunday in the NFC Championship Game against the Detroit Lions in Santa Clara. Detroit allowed the 10th most half-PPR fantasy points to tight ends during the regular season. Most recently, the Lions allowed Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton to gather five receptions for 65 yards and a touchdown. With the matchup and momentum on his side, Kittle has a good chance to outproduce all other fantasy tight ends in Championship Week.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle was instrumental in the team's 24-21 comeback victory over the Green Bay Packers in Saturday's Divisional Round. Kittle secured four of seven targets for a team-leading 81 yards and a touchdown. The second-quarter, 32-yard strike was San Francisco's first score of the game and a brilliant display of what Kittle is capable of in one-on-one coverage. In the fourth quarter, he committed a bad drop during the 49ers' final drive that may not have been so easily forgotten had Brandon Aiyuk not picked up a first down the next play en route to the comeback. Kittle will be a boom/bust option when he takes on either the Detroit Lions or Tampa Bay Buccaneers in next Sunday's NFC Championship Game in Santa Clara.
