George Kittle A Risky TE1 In Week 18

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle has been great during the latter part of the season, ranking as the overall TE3 in half-PPR formats from Week 10 onward.

Jordan Mason A Dart Throw Versus Rams

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan Mason could be worth a look for fantasy managers when the team hosts the Los Angeles Rams in a meaningless Sunday matchup.

San Francisco 49ers D/ST An Excellent Play In Week 17

The San Francisco 49ers D/ST allowed 33 points, tallied two sacks and got no turnovers in Week 16's Christmas night home loss to the Baltimore Ravens.

Jake Moody A Good Start For Week 17

San Francisco 49ers rookie kicker Jake Moody hit a 45-yard field goal and two extra points in the team's Christmas night loss to the Baltimore Ravens.
