Who Should I Start? Tyler Higbee or George Kittle

Saturday, November 8, 3:13 PM

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee has been targeted at least four times in each of his last three games, so he's back on the fantasy radar as a low-end streamer for Week 10 against the San Francisco 49ers. Higbee is just the TE33 in PPR leagues this year, but part of that can be attributed to a slow start. He ranks as the overall TE19 over his last three games, indicating that he's not an uber-reliable fantasy starter, but managers can still plug him into their lineups if they're in a bind due to injuries or bye weeks. The Niners have allowed the 12th-fewest fantasy points and 11th-fewest yards to tight ends in 2025, so managers should be aware of Higbee's low floor.

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.
