Report: Kittle's status uncertain vs. Rams with hamstring issue
San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle is dealing with hamstring tightness, and his status for Sunday's game versus the Los Angeles Rams is in question, a source told Adam Schefter of ESPN.
Kittle didn't practice Thursday after being a full participant Wednesday.
San Francisco is already dealing with injuries to key players. Running back Christian McCaffrey was placed on injured reserve a few days ago and is reportedly expected to miss around six weeks with Achilles tendinitis.
Deebo Samuel suffered a calf injury in the club's loss to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 2 and is expected to be sidelined for a couple of weeks.
Cornerback Charvarius Ward wasn't seen at Thursday's practice either, and he's dealing with hamstring and knee injuries.
Kittle has 11 catches on 13 targets for 116 yards and a touchdown this season. Eric Saubert and Jake Tonges are the other tight ends on San Francisco's depth chart.
