Fantasy Impact

Kittle hurt his ribs during Sunday’s win over the Patriots and wasn’t able to practice on Wednesday because of it. It’s unknown if he will be back at practice anytime soon, and the team is likely taking his recovery day-to-day for right now. This is a situation worth keeping close tabs on throughout the week for fantasy managers.

McBride was able to return to practice for the Cardinals on Wednesday after missing Sunday’s game due to a concussion. He was a limited participant in their first practice of the week, and it appears that he’s trending the right way for Sunday’s game. If he’s available to play, fantasy managers shouldn’t hesitate to start him in a matchup against the 49ers.
