George Kittle Quiet While Playing Through Illness

Sunday, October 11, 4:58 PM

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (illness) was uncertain coming into Week 5, but was eventually cleared to play against the Seattle Seahawks. He finished with five receptions on six targets for 24 yards in the win over the Seahawks. Kittle was active for this game, but his illness likely played a role in his poor performance. The 49ers lost wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. (hamstring) during this game, so Kittle could be asked to do even more next week against the Washington Commanders. The star tight end still had a season-high five receptions during this game, so it wasn't a complete disaster. He'll remain a top-tier tight end in Week 6.

Kenyon Sadiq in the Concussion Protocol

Monday, October 12, 5:58 AM

New York Jets rookie tight end Kenyon Sadiq (concussion) is in the concussion protocol, according to head coach Aaron Glenn. Sadiq suffered the concussion in the third quarter of the 17-12 win over the Cleveland Browns and did not return. He had just two receptions for three yards before the injury, likely due to the inclement weather they played in for most of the game. Glenn also said at the postgame press conference that some players could return in Week 6, including Breece Hall, Adonai Mitchell, Mason Taylor, and rookie Omar Cooper Jr. If those playmakers return, it would be detrimental to Sadiq's value, as he's been serving as the second option in the passing game. Fantasy managers should monitor Sadiq's practice status throughout the week, as well as the other playmakers who could return after their absences.
