George Kittle Participating In Training Camp

The 49ers superstar tight end George Kittle (lower-body) was back on the field practicing, seemingly past the injury concerns he was experiencing earlier in the offseason. Kittle was catching passes from sophomore Trey Lance, in an effort to build chemistry while they prepare to make another playoff run with super bowl aspirations. Kittle was dominant last season, finishing as the TE4, with a career-high six touchdowns, despite missing three games. Health and the transition to Lance continue to present a small worry, making his ADP a bargain in most drafts and an ideal target for 2022.

George Kittle Expected To Miss OTAs

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (calf) is expected to miss all of OTAs. Head coach Kyle Shanahan mentioned that Kittle will likely be shut down until the beginning of training camp. Last season, Kittle missed three weeks with a calf strain and never fully recovered. The 49ers want their three-time Pro Bowl tight end back to 100 percent before the beginning of next season. They also signed Tyler Kroft to add some depth at tight end, but don't expect him to take away targets from Kittle.

George Kittle: Toss-Up Between Trey Lance, Jimmy Garoppolo

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle said it's a toss-up for him when it comes to who he prefers as the starting quarterback in 2022 between second-year signal-caller Trey Lance and veteran Jimmy Garoppolo. "That's the million-dollar question, isn't it?" Kittle said. "That's one reason I'm glad I'm not the head coach of the 49ers. That's all on coach Shanahan. I'll give you both ways. Jimmy G, awesome in the huddle, great leader, directs guys. People go to attention when he's talking. He's got a quick release, he knows the offense. Like I said, been to two NFC Championship games, knows what he's doing. Trey Lance can run, extend plays, does all the play-action stuff incredible, could throw the ball 70 yards. I don't know. It's a toss-up for me." Garoppolo's recovery from offseason surgery will go a long way in deciding whether he's traded before training camp this summer.
