San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle is set to join practice at AAMI Park in Melbourne, Australia, on Monday, following an Achilles issue. This session is part of the team's preparations for their Week 1 game against the Los Angeles Rams on September 10.
Additionally, the 49ers have added tight end Brayden Willis to their practice squad. Kittle's participation in practice on Monday is essential for his chances of playing in the regular season opener, but he also needs to complete practices on Tuesday and Wednesday without any setbacks.
Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his progress throughout the week, as tight end Jake Tonges may receive more opportunities if Kittle faces any difficulties.
