George Kittle

George Kittle may not be at 100 percent for the NFC Championship Game on Sunday.

The Pro Bowl tight end missed 49ers practice on Wednesday due to his ankle injury. He has some soreness in his ankle from the 49ers’ win over the Minnesota Vikings in the Divisional Round of the playoffs.

49ers reporter Nick Wagoner says Kittle did not appear to have any limp or issues in the locker room.

Kittle dealing with a little ankle soreness from the game. He was in the locker room and walking with no obvious limp or issues. We'll see what he does in tomorrow's practice.

— Nick Wagoner (@nwagoner) January 15, 2020

Kittle had 85 catches for 1,053 yards during the regular season and is also one of the best blocking tight ends in the league. He’ll be a key component for San Francisco when they host Green Bay on Sunday with a Super Bowl berth on the line.
