49ers TE George Kittle has limited practice
Our Summary
San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle participated in a limited practice on Wednesday due to an ankle issue. Kittle played 40 of 42 snaps in the Week 18 loss to the Seattle Seahawks, recording five catches for 29 yards, after missing the previous game against the Chicago Bears. Over 11 games this season, Kittle has amassed 57 receptions for 628 yards and seven touchdowns.
The 49ers were also without left tackle Trent Williams and wide receiver Ricky Pearsall during practice. Williams is dealing with a hamstring injury sustained in Week 17, while Pearsall aggravated his PCL injury in the game against the Bears and was unable to play against the Seahawks after limited participation in practice last week.
Additionally, linebacker Dee Winters, defensive end Keion White, and running back Christian McCaffrey (rest) did not practice. Defensive tackle Jordan Elliott, linebacker Luke Gifford, and defensive end Yetur Gross-Matos participated in a limited capacity
