49ers activate George Kittle from PUP list

Aug 23, 2026

The 49ers activated TE George Kittle from the physically unable to perform list Sunday.

Fantasy Impact:

A remarkable recovery from his Achilles injury in January, Kittle is now on track to play Week 1 in Australia against the Rams. Kittle could be a value pick after the consensus top eight tight ends are off the board, especially now that he is cleared with two weeks left before the season starts.

49ers WR De'Zhaun Stribling is listed as day-to-day with a shoulder issue.

Fantasy Impact:

Stribling got the injury during Thursday's preseason game against the Chargers, but the good news is the injury is minor for Stribling to just be day-to-day. The second-round rookie has turned in a strong camp thus far and there are reports he could be in for a bigger role come Week 1. Stribling is becoming a very intriguing late-round flyer, currently going in the 11th round in 12-team leagues.

Falcons head coach Kevin Stefanski told reporters Saturday that quarterback Michael Penix has been cleared for 11-on-11 drills and will practice Monday.

Fantasy Impact:

Penix had been recovering from a torn ACL. He now gets his chance to compete with Tua Tagovailoa and the door is open for Penix to reclaim the starting job following Tagovailoa's struggles so far in the preseason. Atlanta has one more preseason game, Friday against Tagovailoa's former team, the Dolphins. Fantasy owners of Bijan Robinson, Drake London and Kyle Pitts are hoping for somewhat steady quarterback play in Atlanta.

The Seahawks placed WR Jake Bobo on season-ending injured reserve with a knee injury.

Fantasy Impact:
