San Francisco 49ers star tight end George Kittle was absent from practice on Thursday due to hamstring tightness, ESPN reported.

The injury opens up the possibility that Kittle could miss San Francisco's Week 3 road matchup against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday (4:25 p.m.

ET on FOX and the FOX Sports app). Kittle's injury comes in the wake of 49ers superstar running back Christian McCaffrey being placed on injured reserve due to calf and Achilles injuries, while All-Pro wide receiver Deebo Samuel is out multiple weeks due to a calf strain.

Rookie wide receiver and 2024 first-round draft pick Ricky Pearsall is still on injured reserve after being shot just before the season.
