It appears the San Francisco 49ers will have some of their key offensive weapons available against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.
Tight end George Kittle(knee/ankle) and wide receivers Emmanuel Sanders (ribs) and Deebo Samuel (shoulder) are expected to play, though they may work out before the game, sources tell NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport.
Kittle has missed the last two games due to knee and ankle injuries. The third-year pro out of Iowa has 46 catches for 561 yards and two touchdowns in eight games this season.
