49ers may sit TE George Kittle (knee) due to Metlife turf

Speaking to reporters on Wednesday, 49ers Head Coach Kyle Shanahan alluded to possibly holding star tight end George Kittle out of Week 3 due to the turf at Metlife Stadium.

Fantasy Impact:

The 49ers suffered a rash of serious injuries in Week 2 against the Jets and have attributed them at least in part to poor field conditions at Metlife Stadium. Kittle is working his way back from a sprained knee and the 49ers will not want to take any chances with their superstar tight end that just signed a massive extension heading into this season. Hopefully Shanahan will provide updates on Kittle's status later in the week, but it's possible fantasy players will not know his status until Sunday morning inactives are released.

49ers RB Tevin Coleman (knee) to miss at least 4 weeks

49ers Head Coach Kyle Shanahan announced on Wednesday that RB Tevin Coleman will be placed on injured reserve and miss at least four weeks.

Fantasy Impact:

Coleman had been working behind Raheem Mostert, who is also banged up heading into Week 3. Mostert looks doubtful at best for this week's matchup with the Giants, so the 49ers backfield will likely consist of Jerick McKinnon and Jeff Wilson on Sunday. McKinnon has looked good as a receiving back so far this season in his return from a serious knee injury, so he will likely retain pass-catching duties while Wilson runs the ball on early downs.

49ers QB Jimmy Garoppolo (ankle) will not practice Wednesday

49ers Head Coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters that starting QB Jimmy Garoppolo will not practice Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact:

Garoppolo went down with a significant ankle sprain in Week 2, and it appears backup Nick Mullens is on track to start Week 3 against the Giants. There was optimism yesterday that Garoppolo should be able to return after a short absence, so it will be worth monitoring whether he returns to practice this week. The 49ers offense is likely to adopt an ultra run-heavy approach in Garoppolo's absence, and the offense as a whole is already messy for fantasy due to injuries.
