Who Should I Start? George Kittle or Luke Musgrave

Sunday, November 9, 10:29 PM

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle suffered a hamstring injury in the season opener and landed on Injured Reserve, so it's been a frustrating season for his fantasy managers. However, Kittle showed on Sunday why he's still a high-end fantasy TE when he's healthy. In the team's 42-26 loss to the division-rival Los Angeles Rams in Week 10, he led the team by catching all nine of his targets for a season-high 84 receiving yards and his third touchdown of the season. Kittle's nine targets were tied for second on the team, and his nine catches and 84 receiving yards led the 49ers. The 32-year-old veteran's touchdown was a nifty show of athleticism as he tiptoed the sideline and dove for the pile-on. Kittle also made a highlight-reel catch earlier in the game where he laid out with full extension to make the grab. He had more yards on Sunday than he did in his previous three games, and he could be starting to heat up just in time for quarterback Brock Purdy (toe) to potentially return in Week 11 against the Cardinals.

Green Bay Packers tight end Luke Musgrave has a big opportunity on deck as Green Bay hosts the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 10. With Tucker Kraft's knee injury ending his season, Musgrave becomes the next man up. While we can't expect Kraft's previous production to all go to Musgrave moving forward, he does have some route-based upside. Musgrave should run most of the tight end routes for the Packers, with only John FitzPatrick and former Tennessee Titan Josh Whyle recently promoted to the Packers' active roster. Realistically, it's likely that Musgrave mixes in with the rest of the pass-catchers in Green Bay rather than take charge as a preferred target for quarterback Jordan Love. In the Packers' Week 10 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles, Musgrave is just a low-end streamer for fantasy purposes.
