NFL rumors: 49ers' George Kittle, Deebo Samuel expected to play vs. Packers

On Thursday, tight end George Kittle vehemently insisted he didn't want to miss Sunday night's "massive" game between the 49ers and Packers at Levi's Stadium. On the eve of the highly anticipated NFC matchup, it's sounding like he won't have to.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Saturday night that Kittle -- who had been listed as questionable -- is expected to play against Green Bay, citing a source. The same goes for wide receiver Deebo Samuel.

49ers’ TE George Kittle, listed as questionable with ankle and knee injuries, is expected to play tonight against the Packers, per source.
