San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey (Achilles) was rested on Wednesday in the first practice of the week before being limited in Thursday's session. McCaffrey isn't in any real danger of not playing in Week 12 against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, but the 49ers will continue to take it easy on him during the practice week after he missed the first nine weeks of the season due to bilateral Achilles tendonitis. The 28-year-old hasn't scored for his fantasy managers in his first two games of the season, but he has gone over 100 scrimmage yards in both contests, which counts for something. In addition, backup Jordan Mason has been a distant No. 2 in terms of usage. The Packers defense has been middle of the pack this year in terms of fantasy points allowed per game to RBs, but they've given up the fourth-most fantasy points to the position in the last three weeks. CMC is a must-start RB1.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy (shoulder) was listed as a limited practice participant for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Purdy also didn't speak to the media after practice on Thursday, instead opting to get extra treatment for his sore right shoulder. The 24-year-old's status is a bit up in the air for Sunday's game at Lambeau Field against the hosting Green Bay Packers, but the good news is he did more throwing in warmups than he did on Wednesday. In a worst-case scenario for the Niners, Purdy would be held out this weekend in favor of Brandon Allen under center. We'll have a better idea of Purdy's status after Friday's practice. If Purdy gets more done in Friday's practice and is cleared to play by Sunday, he should be considered a low-end QB1 option in fantasy against a Packers defense that has been more stingy against the position in recent weeks.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (hamstring) was limited in practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Kittle has been dealing with some hamstring irritation of late and was held out of the Week 11 loss to the division-rival Seattle Seahawks. The 31-year-old intends to return this Sunday to face the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field, though, and fantasy managers need to move him back into all starting lineups. He could be a little more risky as a TE1 in his first game back after missing last week, but Kittle has been the most productive TE for fantasy managers this year when active, so he's a no-brainer must-start if he's playing. Despite missing two games this season, Kittle is the TE2 in overall fantasy points, behind only rookie Brock Bowers. Kittle's seven touchdowns lead all tight ends.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (hamstring) intends to play on Sunday, according to Nick Wagoner of ESPN. Kittle was held out of action last weekend and was listed as a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session. The Iowa product has enjoyed another fantastic campaign, averaging an impressive 17.6 PPR points per game. He has found the end zone seven times in eight games and averaged a solid 70.0 receiving yards per game. Fantasy managers should continue monitoring his status throughout the week in case he faces a setback, but he should be expected to return to action and be started in all formats as a high-end TE1.

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey (Rest/Achilles) was held out of Wednesday's practice, according to Matt Barrows of The Athletic. McCaffrey has received a heavy workload in both of his games this season and is likely still being eased into a full practice schedule, given the lengthy time he missed earlier in the season. During the past two weeks, McCaffrey tallied at least 20+ touches in each game and saw a season-high 19 carries this past weekend. Fantasy managers should monitor his status throughout the week in case, but he should be expected to return to practice in some capacity on Thursday. The 28-year-old should be viewed as a high-end RB1 for the remainder of the season, given his integral role on one of the best offensive units in the sport.
