Who Should I Start? George Kittle or Cameron Ward

Saturday, October 18, 4:45 PM

The San Francisco 49ers activated tight end George Kittle (hamstring) from injured reserve on Saturday, and he's set to return for Sunday Night Football against the Falcons. Kittle played just 20 snaps in Week 1 against the Seahawks before suffering a hamstring injury that landed him on injured reserve. The stud tight end rewarded fantasy managers with four catches (four targets) for 25 yards and a touchdown before leaving, and now makes his return after missing five games. With several 49ers receivers sidelined, Kittle could see an increased target share on Sunday night against an Atlanta defense that has surrendered the fewest receptions to tight ends this year. Despite the challenging matchup, he remains a high-end TE1 for Week 7 and going forward.

During their first game with an interim coaching staff, the Tennessee Titans plan to "simplify" their offense in an attempt to aid rookie quarterback Cameron Ward, according to a report from ESPN's Adam Schefter. The 2025 No. 1 overall pick is completing just under 55% of his passes for 1,101 yards with three touchdowns and four interceptions through six games, but the Titans are 1-5 and fired head coach Brian Callahan this week. Tennessee is set to take on resurgent New England in Week 7, which should keep Ward, ranked as the No. 33 fantasy quarterback, out of fantasy lineups. At this point, Ward should only be rostered in dynasty formats on a Titans team that is making another strong case to draft first overall.
