George Kittle Limited Again On Thursday

Thursday, November 21, 6:36 PM

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.

Jalen Tolbert Quiet In Week 11 Loss

Tuesday, November 19, 1:13 AM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Tolbert caught just two of his five targets for 21 yards during Monday's loss to the Houston Texans. The 25-year-old posted double-digit fantasy points (PPR) in four of his first eight games this year, initially giving him some low-end WR3/FLEX appeal. However, ever since Cooper Rush has taken over for Dak Prescott (hamstring), Tolbert has fallen off the fantasy radar. He continues to play north of 90 percent of the Cowboys' offensive snaps but has just five catches for 35 yards over his last two games combined. Tolbert can be benched in fantasy leagues with 14 teams or fewer.
