Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle (Achilles) traveled with the team to Australia Wednesday, Sept. 2, after two good days of practice. He's on track to play in Week 1, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Why it Matters: Part of what makes Kittle so valuable is how good of a blocker he is. So the fact that he's out there is a huge bonus for the team, but it may not translate to fantasy just yet. He'll be a low-end TE1 option against the Los Angeles Rams, but if you have another option with a good matchup, you could consider a wait-and-see approach with Kittle after suffering an injury that zaps your burst.
