TUESDAY COMMUNITY KITTLE CORN • TE George Kittle has registered 18 re- cepts. for 316 yds. and 1 TD this season, leading the team in both recepts. and rec. yds. Last week at LAC (9/30/18), Kit- tle registered 6 recepts. for a game- high 125 yds. and 1 TD, including an 82-yd. TD recept. His 82-yd. TD last week was the longest TD recept. by a TE in fran- chise history and is the longest TD scored in the NFL this season (non-return). • Kittle’s 125 rec. yds. were a career high and the most by a 49ers TE since TE Vernon Davis registered 180 rec. yds. vs. Arz. (10/13/13). With 100-or-more rec. yds. this week vs. Arz. (10/7/18), Kittle would become the 3rd 49ers TE since 1970 to register consecutive games with 100-plus rec. yds. (TE Ted Kwalick in Weeks 5-6 of 1972 & TE Eric Johnson in Weeks 4-5 of 2004). Kittle’s 316 rec. yds. on the season are the 3rd-most in the NFL among TEs in 2018, while his 17.6 rec. avg. is the highest among TEs (min. 12 recepts.). Dating back to 2017, the 49ers look for their 4th-consecutive win at Levi’s Stadium. San Francisco looks to start the season with wins in each of their first two home games for just the 3rd time since 2000 (2009 & 2012). The Niners offense is averaging 7.37 yds. per play on 1st down this season, ranking 3rd in the NFL (LAR – 7.83; NO – 7.77). The 49ers defense is allowing 3.66 yds. per carry on 1st down, ranking 9th in the NFL and 3rd in the NFC (Phi. – 3.12; NO – 3.43).
