Kittle trending right for Week 1; confident he won't start on PUP list.

Kittle is trending in the right direction in his Achilles rehab and Week 1 availability remains on the table. He has been running at top speeds, hitting GPS time and speed markers, and completed eight weeks of strong foundational rehab work including calf strength building. He spoke with Richard Sherman about the rehab process and emphasized that building a strong foundation in the first eight weeks is critical before training faster. Kittle is "very confident" he won't begin the season on the PUP list and miss the first four games, with Week 1 still his goal.
