San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle was carted off the field during a game against the Minnesota Vikings due to cramping, requiring an IV. Reports indicate he may have the chance to return to the game, as confirmed by CBS broadcasts and various sports analysts including Adam Schefter. Kittle had contributed five receptions for 56 yards before his departure. In his absence, the 49ers will rely on backup tight ends Eric Saubert and Jake Tonges to manage the position. The team is already dealing with the absence of star running back Christian McCaffrey. Updates on Kittle's condition and potential return are expected as the game progresses.
