Kittle Targets Week 1 Return While Criticizing NFL Field Standards

George Kittle (Achilles) stated Tuesday that he feels "definitely on track" for Week 1, though he noted that "nothing is 100 percent certain." Beyond his recovery, Kittle publicly challenged NFL owners regarding field surface quality. He argued that the league is capable of providing grass fields for all games if ownership prioritized player safety, expressing frustration that the necessary investment is not being made to match the standards seen in the World Cup.
