George Kittle set to play against Packers despite hamstring injury

Why it matters: Kittle's return provides a much-needed boost to the 49ers' offense and increases their chances of success against Green Bay.

Kittle's absence in the previous game resulted in the team's lowest yardage output and tied their lowest point total of the season.
The tight end has been the team's most productive pass catcher this season, with impressive statistics of 43 receptions for 560 yards and seven touchdowns in just eight games.

What's new: Kittle confirmed that he will be playing against the Packers on Sunday, despite dealing with a hamstring injury.

He participated in limited practice on Wednesday, indicating progress in his recovery.
The decision to sit out the previous game was a precautionary measure to avoid further injury and ensure a full recovery.

Yes, but: Other key players on the 49ers' roster are also being monitored for their availability against the Packers.

Quarterback Brock Purdy experienced soreness in his throwing shoulder but participated in practice on Wednesday.
Left tackle Trent Williams and defensive end Nick Bosa did not practice on Wednesday but played through their respective injuries in the last game.
Cornerback Charvarius Ward returned to practice after being away from the team due to the tragic death of his 1-year-old daughter.

What to watch: The performance of Kittle, Purdy, Williams, Bosa, and Ward during the upcoming game will have a significant impact on the 49ers' chances of success.

The bottom line: Kittle's return provides a significant boost to the 49ers' offense and increases their chances of victory against the Packers. However, the availability of other key players remains a concern and will be crucial to the team's overall performance.
