SEPTEMBER 10 • SI.COM
In clear to play Week 1 Kittle (Achilles) isn't listed on the 49ers' injury report ahead of Thursday's contest against the Rams, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact The game technically will be taking place Friday local time in Melbourne, Australia, but Kittle has made quick work in his recovery from the torn right Achilles that he suffered in San Francisco's wild-card win at Philadelphia on Jan. 11. Kittle was listed as limited on the team's first two practice reports of Week 1 prep, so it stands to reason he may operate with a cap on his snaps. Still, he's in line to be out there for the 49ers' regular-season opener.
SEPTEMBER 10 • ROTOWIRE
Remains limited Wednesday Kittle (Achilles) remained limited in Wednesday's practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Coach Kyle Shanahan has already indicated Kittle will play in Thursday night's season opener against the Rams in Australia, but the team is monitoring his practice reps. The veteran tight end is coming off a torn Achilles and is expected to see his snaps dialed back some against Los Angeles, though he should remain a staple in the red zone. Kittle is probably more of a TE2 than locked-in TE1 for fantasy in Week 1.
