George Kittle Looks To Continue Heater In Week 11

George Kittle Looks To Continue Heater In Week 11

12 months ago

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle comes into a home matchup on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers having just torched the Jacksonville Jaguars for 116 yards and a touchdown on three catches and four targets and the Cincinnati Bengals before that for 149 yards on nine catches. Tampa Bay's pass defense has been suspect, giving up the second-most yards per game through the air, but they're in the better half of the league in fantasy points allowed to tight ends. While Kittle has been hot, fantasy managers should remember how streaky he can be and plan accordingly. Those carrying two quality tight ends might consider an alternative as a floor play but for the vast majority, Kittle's home run ability should keep him in lineups as a mid-tier TE1.
