San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (hamstring) intends to play on Sunday, according to Nick Wagoner of ESPN. Kittle was held out of action last weekend and was listed as a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session. The Iowa product has enjoyed another fantastic campaign, averaging an impressive 17.6 PPR points per game. He has found the end zone seven times in eight games and averaged a solid 70.0 receiving yards per game. Fantasy managers should continue monitoring his status throughout the week in case he faces a setback, but he should be expected to return to action and be started in all formats as a high-end TE1.
San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey (Rest/Achilles) was held out of Wednesday's practice, according to Matt Barrows of The Athletic. McCaffrey has received a heavy workload in both of his games this season and is likely still being eased into a full practice schedule, given the lengthy time he missed earlier in the season. During the past two weeks, McCaffrey tallied at least 20+ touches in each game and saw a season-high 19 carries this past weekend. Fantasy managers should monitor his status throughout the week in case, but he should be expected to return to practice in some capacity on Thursday. The 28-year-old should be viewed as a high-end RB1 for the remainder of the season, given his integral role on one of the best offensive units in the sport.
San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (hamstring) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice, according to Matt Barrows of The Athletic. The standout tight end was sidelined during last weekend's game due to a hamstring injury. However, seeing him back in practice, albeit in a limited capacity, suggests he could be in line to return to action this weekend to face the Green Bay Packers. Fantasy managers should continue monitoring his status throughout the week in case he faces a setback. Before the injury, the 31-year-old averaged an impressive 74.0 yards and 5.3 receptions per game with six total scores during Weeks 4 through 10. If Kittle can return to action, fantasy managers should view him as a high-end TE1 in all formats this weekend.
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy (shoulder) was limited during Wednesday's practice, according to Matt Barrows of The Athletic. The 24-year-old quarterback suffered an injury in his throwing shoulder during last Sunday's loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Fantasy managers should continue monitoring his progress throughout the week, but seeing him participate in practice early in the week is a promising sign of his availability this coming weekend. Even though Purdy threw for a season-low 159 yards last weekend, fantasy managers should still view him as a solid low-end QB1 heading into Week 12 facing the Green Bay Packers as he has averaged a strong 27.0 PPR points per game during Weeks 6 through 10.
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy (shoulder) is dealing with some right-shoulder soreness on Monday and is considered day-to-day, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan. Purdy might be included on the team's Week 12 injury report but he should ultimately be fine to play this upcoming Sunday on the road at Lambeau Field against the Green Bay Packers. The 24-year-old was without tight end George Kittle (hamstring) in the Week 11 loss to the division-rival Seattle Seahawks and went 21-for-28 for a season-low 159 yards, one touchdown and his eighth interception of the year. His shoulder injury is something to watch throughout the week, but ultimately it shouldn't affect his Week 12 status. Purdy could certainly bounce back as more of a QB1 in fantasy against Green Bay, especially if Kittle is back in action.
