49ers TE George Kittle (calf) did not practice on Wednesday. Kittle, of course, got in just 1 limited practice last week before playing 92% of the snaps in the loss to Seattle. Kittle should be fine for Sunday's game vs. the Cardinals.
49ers TE George Kittle (calf) is active for today’s game vs. the Seahawks. He only got in a limited practice on Friday and was reportedly a game-time decision. Kittle obviously carries elevated risk in Week 4 fantasy lineups -- but we’d still be using him if you waited on him.

Niners-Hawks doesn't kick off until 4:05 pm ET today, but Kittle can be penciled into fantasy lineups for now.
49ers TE George Kittle (calf) is questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Seahawks. He only got in a limited practice on Friday.

We'll continue to keep you updated on the situation.
Niners HC Kyle Shanahan didn't sound so optimistic Friday morning when asked about whether TE George Kittle will be able to play through his calf injury this week. He told KNBR radio: "I hope so.

49ers TE George Kittle (calf) missed Wednesday's practice. HC Kyle Shanahan said Kittle's calf is sore but that he "should be ok" for Sunday's game vs. the Seahawks. We'll get another update on Kittle's status tomorrow.
SI's Grant Cohn reports that 49ers TE George Kittle has caught just 2 passes through 5 days of camp. "Instead they're using him as a blocker and a decoy while they call passes for Brandon Aiyuk, Deebo Samuel and Ross Dwelley," Cohn writes. That does seem odd given the financial commitment to Kittle. We'll go ahead and give HC Kyle Shanahan the benefit of the doubt and assume he has not converted Kittle to decoy/blocker. But Kittle's early-round draft position makes this situation worth keeping an eye on -- especially given that San Francisco is bringing along a rookie QB. It's tough to imagine the Niners getting too cute just to try to hide that they like Kittle.
