George Kittle

George Kittle (hamstring) was removed from the injury report and will play in Week 12 against the Packers.

Kittle is back after missing one game due to the hamstring issue, though he also missed a game earlier in the year because of a hamstring injury. The bigger news on San Francisco’s injury report is Brocky Purdy’s upcoming absence. The 49ers signal-caller is out with a shoulder injury. Sans Purdy, it’s hard to trust any San Francisco pass-catcher, even with Kyle Shanahan’s record of success with backup quarterbacks. The dismal state of tight ends means fantasy managers have to start Kittle anyway, though the floor is all but gone versus Green Bay.
