Is George Kittle playing in Week 1 vs. Rams? Final status for 49ers star TE

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle has been officially cleared to play in the team's Week 1 game against the Los Angeles Rams in Australia. Kittle had torn his Achilles on January 11 during the Wildcard Round playoff loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, making his recovery timeline a major offseason question. Quarterback Brock Purdy praised Kittle's return, describing him as a 'Hall of Fame-caliber player' who will make an impact whenever he's on the field.
