George Kittle News
Saturday, July 25, 10:46 AM
The San Francisco 49ers placed tight end George Kittle (Achilles) on the Physically Unable to Perform list on Saturday for the start of training camp, according to Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports. Kittle is not ready to join the rest of his teammates for the start of camp after suffering a torn right Achilles tendon in the wild-card victory over the Philadelphia Eagles back in January. He is optimistic that he will be ready for the Week 1 regular-season opener in Australia against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams, but fantasy managers shouldn't be nearly as optimistic. The 49ers can activate Kittle from the PUP list at any time this summer. If the 32-year-old veteran is not ready for the beginning of the 2026 season, Jake Tonges will step in as the team's top pass-catching TE. Kittle, a seven-time Pro Bowler and two-time first-team All-Pro, is a risk/reward low-end TE1 target as he heads into his 10th year in the NFL. He'd be a massive value at the position if he returns to his pre-injury form, but the odds are against that, and he could miss the first couple of weeks of the 2026 season.

Dalton Kincaid News
Wednesday, July 22, 11:08 AM
Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid is entering his final two seasons with the Bills after the team exercised his fifth-year option in late March. Kincaid appeared poised to become a TE1 last season, but his season was derailed by multiple soft-tissue injuries. Heading into 2026, Kincaid's fantasy outlook has not changed much despite the addition of DJ Moore to the offense. The 26-year-old still has the opportunity to secure the No. 2 pass-catching role in a Josh Allen-led offense and be a red-zone threat capable of double-digit touchdowns. If Kincaid stays healthy, he has the chance to finally become the TE1 everyone thought he could be when he was drafted in the first round in 2023.
