George Kittle Returns from Achilles Injury in Week 1

George Kittle returned to action in the 49ers' 27-7 win against the Rams, nine months after tearing his Achilles. Despite being cleared to play without an injury designation, Kittle had a quiet statistical outing, recording just two catches for 12 yards on five targets, totaling 3.2 PPR points. While his return is a positive development, his usage and snap count remain areas to monitor as he continues his uphill battle to return to high-end production.
