Fantasy Football Outlook: Will George Kittle Play Week 7?
George Kittle (hamstring) will play Sunday
George Kittle (hamstring) will play in Sunday night’s game against the Atlanta Falcons.
Fantasy Impact
Kittle has been sidelined since the season opener due to a hamstring injury, but he has finally been cleared to play and is set to make his return to the lineup for Sunday night’s game against the Falcons. He is not going to be on a snap count at all and should be started in all league formats in this matchup, even with Mac Jones set to start in place of the injured Brock Purdy (toe).

What the Experts Are Saying
George Kittle will return this week, just in time for a duel against the Falcons, who are coming off a massive win against the Bills. Unfortunately for Kittle, the Falcons are the best defense against the TE. Usually, with a TE like Kittle, I would say this doesn’t matter. However, the Falcons this year are averaging two receptions and 17 yards per game at the position. That’s wild. Still, if Kittle is playing, he has to be in your lineups. With Juan Jennings playing with five broken ribs and Rcky Pearsall out again, they will need to force-feed Kittle to move this offense.
