While George Kittle may look great coming off the torn Achilles from the Wild Card Game last season, I'm hesitant to start him in Week 1. We haven't seen him suit up for any game action during the preseason. It's quite uncommon to return from a serious injury this fast, especially at age 32.

Kittle's Achilles recovery and likely snap count limit Week 1 upside vs. Rams.

Kittle is returning from a torn Achilles suffered in the Wild Card Game last season and did not suit up for any game action during the preseason. At age 32, it's uncommon to return from a serious injury this fast, and he could easily be put on a snap count with a slow ramp-up to start the season. The Rams are expected to have a stout defense on paper, making this a poor Week 1 matchup.
