INJURIES

Reverts to backup role Sunday Tonges logged eight snaps on offense (12 percent) and was not targeted in Sunday's 20-10 win over the Falcons.
Impact George Kittle (hamstring) was activated from injured reserve for Sunday's contest, which pushed Tonges back down to third on the tight end depth chart. Luke Farrell (33 percent) finished second in playing time behind Kittle (81 percent), as it appears that the coaching staff prefers the former's blocking in the No. 2 role over Tonges' play-making ability. Tonges did an admirable job filling in for Kittle, producing a 25-224-3 receiving line in five-plus games played. Fantasy managers can safely move on from Tonges in Week 8, but he is a name to remember for any games Kittle might miss in the future.

Strong PPR effort Sunday Tonges corralled six of seven targets for 57 yards in Sunday's 30-19 loss to Tampa Bay.
Impact Tonges continued doing his best George Kittle (hamstring) impression in another effective spot-start Sunday. The 25-year-old Tonges has been a pleasant surprise in fantasy during his brief run as the starter, posting a 25-223-3 receiving line through six games. David Lombardi of SFStandard.com reported that Kittle could return from injured reserve in Week 7, which would effectively end Tonges' run of utility. Managers should wait until Kittle is officially activated before making any rash decisions regarding Tonges in Week 7 and onward.

OCTOBER 5, 2025 • THENEWSTRIBUNE.COM
Involvement boosted in OT win Tonges secured seven of 11 targets for 41 yards and a touchdown in the 49ers' 26-23 overtime win over the Rams on Thursday night.
Impact The third-year tight end was due for an elevated role with Jauan Jennings (ribs, ankle) and Ricky Pearsall (knee) joining Brandon Aiyuk (PUP, knee) and George Kittle (IR, hamstring) on the sideline, and that came to fruition perhaps to an even greater degree than expected. Tonges finished tied with Kendrick Bourne for the team lead in targets, and he opened the scoring on the night with a six-yard touchdown grab to close out the opening possession of the contest. Kittle reportedly has a chance to return when first eligible in a Week 6 road matchup against the Buccaneers on Sunday, Oct. 12, but Tonges has proven capable of serving as an effective complementary pass-catching option with his work during his teammate's absence.

49ers face injury woes with Purdy's toe and short week ahead of Rams clash

The San Francisco 49ers are dealing with injuries following their first loss of the season to the Jacksonville Jaguars
SEPTEMBER 29, 2025 • Associated Press
Career game in loss Sunday Tonges had three receptions on five targets for 58 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-21 loss to the Jaguars.
Impact Tonges suffered an injury scare when he needed to have his shoulder examined by the medical staff early in the contest. The Los Gatos, CA native only missed a handful of snaps on offense before returning the game and posting the best receiving line of his young career. Tonges continues to see the lion's share of snaps vacated by George Kittle (hamstring), who remains out of action for multiple weeks while healing on the injured reserve list. The 25-year-old is averaging just 4.0 targets per game in his elevated role this season, so he should be treated as a touchdown-dependent asset heading into Thursday's tilt against the Rams.

Purdy Dials Up a 21-Yard TD to Jake Tonges San Francisco 49ers QB Brock Purdy slipped a screen to TE Jake Tonges, who takes it 21 yards to the house against the Jaguars.
SEPTEMBER 28, 2025 • 49ERS.COM
Returns to Sunday's contest Tonges (shoulder) has returned for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Impact Tonges appeared to suffer the injury in the first quarter of Sunday's game. He was checked on by trainers on the sidelines and has been cleared to return to the contest. Tonges is leading a 49ers tight end group that is without George Kittle (hamstring) until at least Week 6 against Tampa Bay.
SEPTEMBER 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Sustains shoulder injury Tonges suffered a shoulder injury during Sunday's contest against the Jaguars, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact Tonges stayed down on the turf early in the first quarter and eventually visited the sideline tent before the 49ers touched on the nature of the injury. For as long as Tonges is sidelined, Luke Farrell and Brayden Willis will handle TE duties with George Kittle (hamstring) logging the third of at least four absences that are required while he's on injured reserve.
SEPTEMBER 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Gains 21 yards in start Tonges brought in two of three targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 16-15 win over the Cardinals.
Impact Tonges made his first career start Sunday, finishing with 15 more snaps than fellow tight end Luke Farrell. The 25-year-old Tonges failed to replicate the Week 1 touchdown that generated some fantasy buzz, resulting in mediocre production in two appearances with backup QB Mac Jones. Tonges could see a slight uptick in projections if Brock Purdy (toe/shoulder) is able to suit up against the Jaguars next Sunday.
