George Kittle Looks To Bounce Back In Week 7

George Kittle Looks To Bounce Back In Week 7

one year ago

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle will try to put Week 6 behind him when the team goes to Minnesota to play the Vikings on Monday night. In last week's tough matchup versus Cleveland, Kittle mustered only one catch for one yard on two targets. But Kittle has been up and down all season and should be very motivated after not contributing to his team's passing attack in a game they lost. Minnesota is middle-of-the-pack in fantasy points allowed to tight ends at 6.2 per game and has a poor pass defense overall. Another boon to Kittle managers was wide receiver Deebo Samuel being ruled out with a shoulder injury, which gives Kittle a chance at more targets. Kittle should be started in all leagues in Week 7 as a mid-level TE1.
