George Kittle In Line For Big Week Against Falcons

Saturday, October 24, 1:39 AM

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle has finished in the top seven at his position in four out of six games, scoring at least 17.0 PPR points in each of those contests. In Week 6, he caught five passes for 65 yards and a touchdown on eight targets. Only Christian McCaffrey got more looks with Deebo Samuel Sr. (hamstring) out and Mike Evans leaving injured just before halftime. Both wide receivers have been ruled out for San Francisco's Week 7 game against the Falcons, positioning Kittle for a high-volume game. Atlanta has given up the seventh-most receptions and ninth-most fantasy points to opposing tight ends. Through six weeks, Kittle leads tight ends in touchdowns with five, has the fourth-most receiving yards, and is the overall TE3 in fantasy. He is projected as a TE1 and should be locked into the starting lineup for Week 7.

Jaylen Wright Possibly Past His Foot Injury

Saturday, October 24, 5:10 AM

Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright could work his way into a timeshare with Ollie Gordon II over the next few weeks if he can show that he's fully past the foot injury that has slowed him down in the early part of the season. Wright doesn't have an injury designation this week after a full practice on Friday. He missed Week 3's game, which was when De'Von Achane (knee) suffered a season-ending injury. Wright returned to play in Week 4 and Week 5, but he was very limited and only had 18 rushing yards on 11 carries. He seemed to be significantly behind Gordon, who had strong showings in those contests, with Wright serving mostly as a change-of-pace option with limited success. With the bye in Week 6, hopefully he's healthier and ready to contribute more going forward. Until he does, though, he can stay on the bench or waiver wire since he is RotoBaller's No. 56 RB in Week 7 against the Jets.
