George Kittle Fantasy Football Outlook (2025)

No tight end scored more points per game than Kittle did in 2024 (13.2). The 49ers dynamic pass-catcher continued to be an efficient monster at 31 years old finishing 2024 first in yards per route run. He went over 1,000 yards for the second straight season (the only TE to do so) and finished top 5 for the fourth straight season.
Since his breakout in 2018, Kittle has been a top five fantasy TE in six seasons where he played at least 14 games. Even if the ride is bumpy at times in a crowded 49ers offense, Kittle's spiked weeks are hard to find elsewhere. His 43% boom rate led all TEs.
It's possible that with Deebo Samuel potentially cut and Brandon Aiyuk returning from a season-ending injury, Kittle is relied on more than ever in 2025.
