George Kittle Escapes Serious Knee Injury, Might Be Limited

George Kittle, the star 49ers tight end, appeared to suffer a right knee injury in the second quarter of the game against the Seahawks. By video, Kittle was hit while he was up in the air without his right leg planted. He does land and twist his knee awkwardly, but he jogged off the field and returned to the game. We believe he avoided a serious injury, but it remains to be monitored because he could develop some stiffness and swelling.
