George Kittle Week 13 Outlook - 49ers at Eagles
By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Nov 30th 2023, 1:05pm EST
Kittle should bounce back this week after a rare down game in Week 12. Kittle is the TE4 in fantasy, ranking first in deep targets and eighth in red zone looks among tight ends. Kittle is third in receiving yards and yards after the catch. Since Week 7, the Eagles have operated with the seventh-highest rate of man coverage (33.5%) and with 57% of their defensive snaps in single-high. Against single-high and man coverage, Kittle has been the 49ers' second option in the passing game, with a 21.2% target share against single-high and a 21.8% target share versus man coverage. He ranks second in YPRR against both coverage types, with Samuel healthy. Kittle leads the team with a 25.6% first read share against man coverage while also noting he also leads the team with three end zone targets against single-high. Kittle should crush souls this week against an Eagles defense that has allowed the 11th-most fantasy points per game and is tied for the most receiving touchdowns per game given up to tight ends. Week 13 Positional Value: TE1
