Kittle has gone for 512 total yards in his last six games, catching 28 passes on 32 targets. That includes a monster game in Week 14 in which the tight end snatched all six passes his way for 151 yards through the air. He’s grabbed six receptions in four of those six outings and has had at least five catches in seven of his 10 appearances in 2024. Kittle sizes up a Los Angeles defense allowing the 13thmost receptions to tight ends. Los Angeles’ defense runs one of the highest rates of zone coverage in the NFL and Kittle loves exploiting the space of zone schemes as well. He’s the No. 1 tight end in the league against zone, according to his PFF qualified stats, with almost 61% of his total receptions coming against zone defense. Player projections for Thursday Night Football call for a big night from Kittle, with many models calling for five catches from the San Franciso star and more than 65 yards receiving.

Brock Purdy o240.5 Passing Yards (-110)
Purdy is coming off a monster showing (325 passing yards and 13.0 yards per attempt) at home against the Chicago Bears in Week 14, and he faces a vulnerable Los Angeles Rams pass defense on a short week at Levi’s Stadium on Thursday. The Rams have surrendered the second-highest yards per attempt (8.02) to opposing quarterbacks and the fourth-highest EPA per dropback this season, and I’m anticipating the Niners having to attack more through the air with fourth-string running back Isaac Guerendo (foot) the latest rusher to succumb to injury Sunday.
