Kittle's return transforms tight end room; 1-on-1 coverage.

George Kittle's return changes everything at tight end. The 49ers don't need to roster an inexperienced or untrustworthy backup; instead of using a platoon rotation between Jake Tonges and Luke Farrell, they stay in their respective roles. Defenses will be forced to play Kittle 1-on-1, and the run game will benefit from his presence. It may take a couple of weeks for Kittle to get into football shape.
