George Kittle got the update San Francisco was waiting on. His visit with Dr. Neal ElAttrache, the surgeon who repaired his torn Achilles, was described as encouraging, and Kittle now has a legitimate chance to play Week 1 against the Rams. He has been ahead of schedule the whole rehab. DFS angle: a healthy Kittle reshapes the entire tight end board. He is one of the few TEs who can win a slate by himself, and if he is cleared late the field will still be spooked by the Achilles tag, which is exactly where leverage lives. Watch the 49ers practice reports the next three weeks before you lock in a chalk tight end. (source: NBC Sports Bay Area, NBC Sports Rotoworld, CBS Sports, Niners Nation)
