Outlook George Kittle
George Kittle vs MIA at home — managing workload through Achilles recovery
Kittle caught two of five targets for 12 yards in the opener while on a managed snap count and remains questionable following limited practices this week. With backup tight end Jake Tonges placed on injured reserve, Kittle firmly leads the position group alongside Luke Farrell, though San Francisco continues to ease him back. Check back before kickoff for his official status.
As heavy home favorites against Miami, the 49ers could lean toward a run-heavy game script. Our projection expects roughly 4 receptions for 48 yards (10.9 fantasy points). Even with his volume potentially constrained, Kittle's red-zone presence and steady usage keep him in starting lineups across standard leagues if cleared to play.

Kaelon Black vs Dolphins: Expanding role tempered by minor groin issue
Black made an immediate splash in his NFL debut, handling 14 carries for 65 yards as the primary backup to Christian McCaffrey. While he was limited in Thursday's practice with groin tightness, head coach Kyle Shanahan eased concerns by noting the team was simply being cautious. Check back before kickoff to confirm his game-day status.
Rostered in 77% of leagues after his Week 1 usage, Black offers standalone value with San Francisco favored heavily at home against Miami. Our models project him for roughly 10 carries, 44 rushing yards, and 8 fantasy points, making him a viable deep-league option and a premium stash with high-end contingent upside.
