49ers TE George Kittle expected to practice Monday

San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle (Achilles) is expected to practice at AAMI Park on Monday in Melbourne, Australia ahead of the team's Week 1 game Thursday, Sept. 10, against the Los Angeles Rams . In addition, TE Brayden Willis was signed to the team's practice squad.

Huddle Up: As long as Kittle makes it through practice unscathed on Monday, he'll be in line for play in the regular season opener. But, let's pump the brakes a little bit. He still has to make it through Tuesday and Wednesday, too. Fantasy managers can be optimistic, but let's see him on the practice field without any setbacks before finalizing lineups. If he has some sort of a setback, Jake Tonges would benefit the most from a fantasy perspective.
