Jake Tonges. The 49ers might not want to spread things out if the offensive line cannot hold up or the wideouts cannot separate. Even if George Kittle is inactive early on, two-tight-end sets might be their best path for success. Tonges reportedly caught multiple passes downfield.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Tonges' downfield receiving ability positions him as potential TE2 in two-TE sets.

Tonges caught multiple passes downfield during joint practice, demonstrating receiving ability that could expand his role. Kyle Shanahan noted that Tonges can do all of the things Kyle Juszczyk can do. The source suggests two-tight-end sets with Tonges may become a key part of the 49ers offense, particularly if the offensive line struggles or receivers cannot separate. Tonges could be the TE2 who sees meaningful snaps.
