From the article

Tonges and Farrell are locks, but Willis did some of the dirty work while taking snaps at the FB spot, and helped spring McCormick's long run with a beautiful seal block to open the hole for the running back. The 49ers received an encouraging report about George Kittle, but may have to lean on Tonges in Week 1 if the All-Pro tight end doesn't make the trip to Australia.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Tonges locked in as tight end; could start Week 1 if Kittle unavailable.

Tonges is a lock at tight end with 18 snaps and a 43.0 grade, and may see increased opportunity in Week 1 if George Kittle doesn't make the trip to Australia due to injury concerns.
