Fantasy Impact:

It’s a brutal blow to the 49ers and their playoff hopes. They were able to pull off the win against Philadelphia, and will have to carry on without him. With Kittle likely out for the majority of the 2026 season, expect Jake Tonges to have an expanded role, unless the team decides to add to their tight end room.
