Finds end zone in losing effort Kittle had two receptions (on five targets) for 27 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Rams.
Impact Kittle finally hit pay dirt after enduring a six-week scoring drought. The stud tight end could have had an even bigger final line, but two of his missed targets came on wide-open overthrows by Jimmy Garoppolo. Still, it was a positive finish to another solid fantasy season from one of the best in the league. It is worth noting that Kittle -- who started the year as the 49ers' projected primary target -- took a backseat to Deebo Samuel in the second half of the season. It may not matter much if Trey Lance is ready to take over under center in 2022, as Garoppolo acted as a muffler for an explosive offense that has two certified superstars. A quarterback change in San Francisco next season could unlock new levels of production for a talented group of playmakers.

Good to go Kittle isn't listed on the 49ers injury report ahead of their NFC Championship Game matchup with the Rams on Sunday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact Kittle was limping toward the end of Sunday's divisional-round win over the Packers, but both he and Deebo Samuel (leg) have avoided the injury report for the NFC title game, giving quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo all his key receiving options. The tight end caught four of six targets for 63 yards in the 13-10 win over Green Bay last week, ending a four-game streak with fewer than 30 receiving yards. That includes a 10-yard dud against the Rams in Week 18, though Kittle put up 5-50-1 receiving line on seven targets in the first matchup between the divisional rivals (Week 10).

Powers for 63 yards Kittle had four receptions on six targets for 63 yards in Saturday's 13-10 win over the Packers.
Impact Kittle started this contest with an uncharacteristic drop that hit him in the hands, but he was able to adapt to the colder, harder football from there on out. The 28-year-old did appear to suffer an injury scare when he was noticeably limping off of the field on one of the final plays of regulation, but he was not listed alongside fellow superstars Deebo Samuel (ankle) and Trent Williams (ankle) during the post-game injury interview segment, so we can only assume his injury was minor. Assuming he can avoid the injury reports during upcoming practice sessions, Kittle will gear up to face either the Buccaneers or Rams in the NFC Championship Game next Sunday.
