Kittle was placed on the PUP list by the 49ers to open training camp as he recovers from a torn Achilles he suffered during the 2025 NFL playoffs. The 32-year-old has expressed a desire to play the team's Week 1 game in Melbourne against the Rams, but there's no guarantee he will be able to come off the PUP list before then.

Kittle's Week 1 return uncertain; Tonges and Farrell will split TE duties.

Kittle was placed on the PUP list by the 49ers to open training camp as he recovers from a torn Achilles suffered during the 2025 NFL playoffs. The 32-year-old has expressed a desire to play the team's Week 1 game in Melbourne against the Rams, but there's no guarantee he will be able to come off the PUP list before then. As long as Kittle remains sidelined, Jake Tonges and Luke Farrell will split time at tight end, with Tonges being the bigger fantasy factor as a receiver while Farrell is more known for his blocking prowess.
