Kittle caught two passes (three targets) for 35 yards in Sunday's 18-15 overtime loss to the Cardinals.
The 35 yards marked a new season high for the rookie tight end, which is a testament to his overall lack of involvement in San Francisco's air attack through four games. Brian Hoyer clearly prefers targeting his outside receivers in passing situations, utilizing Kittle as a safety valve -- as he was on both of his catch and runs Sunday -- when his primary options are covered. The 23-year-old has received two red-zone targets through four games, but neither has come from 10 yards in. Kittle's limited usage and lack of touchdown potential make him tough to roster, even in deeper formats.
