Whether due to their own play, the play of others, or injuries, players' stock increases and decreases on a weekly basis.

George Kittle Not Practicing Tuesday

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (knee) did not practice on Tuesday. The 49ers played last Thursday and have a Monday night game in Week 10 against the Seahawks.
