George Kittle A TE1 Contender In Week 13

Saturday, November 29, 4:33 AM

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle started slowly in his return from injured reserve, putting up an 8-75-1 line in his first three games back. Since Week 10, Kittle turned things around and has averaged seven receptions, 76.3 yards, and one touchdown per game. On Sunday, the 49ers travel to Cleveland to face the Browns, who just allowed a combined 11 catches for 105 yards to the Raiders' tight end group. The forecast in Cleveland calls for strong winds, rain, and snow, which could steer the 49ers into leaning on their run game. Kittle should remain a factor, especially when San Francisco closes in on the end zone. Over the last three weeks, Kittle is tied for the third-most targets and has the fourth-most receptions in the red zone. He projects as a TE1 and can be started in fantasy football lineups in Week 13.

Chig Okonkwo News

Chig Okonkwo is a Risky Choice for Week 13

Saturday, November 29, 3:30 PM

Tennessee Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo (foot) is officially listed as questionable ahead of the Week 13 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Okonkwo has been limited in practice this week due to a lingering foot issue. When healthy, Okonkwo has been a lackluster option for fantasy managers this season. The 26-year-old has been playing better lately with six receptions for 96 yards over his last two games. Despite that, Okonkwo will still have limited upside due to the fact he'll continue splitting up the playing time with Gunnar Helm. It doesn't seem like Okonkwo is going to be 100 percent healthy for this game. Fantasy managers should consider him on the lower end in the TE2 conversation for Week 13.
