George Kittle has been having a monster season, despite injury struggles with both his knee and his ankle. However, as of late he’s been playing with the same rib padding as he did last year after dislocating rib cartilage. While Kittle is nowhere to be found on the 49ers injury reports, it’s worth noting and might be a cause for concern. Is Kittle fully healthy? Thomas Mott weighs in IN THE VIDEO ABOVE AND BELOW.

49ers rumors have also been swirling about Joe Staley and his future in the NFL. Despite signing a one-year contract extension back in June, Staley continues to field questions about his health and future heading into the 2020 season. The 49ers veteran left tackle shut down any speculation on calling it quits after the season, going as far as asking reporters to STOP asking him about retirement. His focus is on beating the Vikings this week in the NFC Divisional Round.
