Can 49ers depth chart additions at tight end help George Kittle in 2020?

It was clear pretty early in 2020 the San Francisco 49ers depth chart at tight end would look a bit different than it did the previous year.

For starters, veteran tight end Garrett Celek retired. The Niners also lost blocking tight end Levine Toilolo to free agency, meaning Ross Dwelley and Daniel Helm were the lone players at the position to support and back up the All-Pro, George Kittle.
