From the article

Farrell and George Kittle played the same number of snaps in Week 2. Only one of these players was targeted. It was good to see Kittle still has enough burst to run away from safeties. He stiff-armed the poor rookie safety.

Positive signalRole

Kittle's burst evident on targets; benefited from coverage busts.

Kittle matched Farrell's snap count in Week 2 and was the only tight end targeted; he showed burst to run away from safeties and stiff-armed a rookie safety, though he benefited from a couple of coverage busts.
