49ers TE George Kittle Misses Wednesday Practice, Questionable for Sunday

AutoDraft Pro AI

49ers TE George Kittle (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday, though coach Kyle Shanahan stated he 'has a chance' to play Sunday against the Bears. Kittle was tackled awkwardly on Monday, reportedly suffering a mid-to-low ankle sprain, avoiding a high ankle sprain. His availability is not guaranteed, but he doesn't necessarily need to practice to be active. Jake Tonges would likely step into the pass-catching role if Kittle is unable to suit up, and fantasy managers should stash Tonges as insurance.
