San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle corralled five of his six targets for 24 yards in Week 5 versus the Seattle Seahawks.
Why It Matters: Kittle returned to earth with the kind of performance most expected to define the early part of this season as he returned from his postseason Achilles injury. This effort ended what had been an incredible three-game run in which he posted lines of 4-80-1, 6-82-2 and 4-70-1. Still, his fantasy managers have to be thrilled with what they have received from him so far. Next up is a wonderful matchup versus a Washington Commanders defense that has already allowed three individual tight ends to score at least two touchdowns in a game.
