Kittle is now up to 16 catches for 244 yards and his four scores on the season. And he looked good doing it Sunday while reaching 19.84 mph on his touchdown play, according to Next Gen Stats. Not bad for a guy less than 9 months removed from a torn Achilles.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Kittle's four TDs and elite speed (19.84 mph) signal strong recovery from Achilles injury.

Kittle has emerged as Purdy's favorite target and primary red-zone weapon through four games; he has four touchdown receptions on the season (16 catches, 244 yards) less than nine months after recovering from a ruptured Achilles tendon suffered in January. On his game-icing 56-yard touchdown reception Sunday, Kittle reached 19.84 mph according to Next Gen Stats, demonstrating elite athleticism and explosiveness in his return from injury.
