Why isn’t George Kittle playing for the 49ers against the Seahawks in Week 11?
The 49ers will be without a key figure in what’s set to be a tough game against the Seahawks.

What injury does George Kittle have?
While the 49ers' recent win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers was impressive, they lost Kittle to a hamstring issue that has kept fans on edge for a week.

The 49ers are second in their group, the NFC West, sitting behind the Cardinals. Five wins and 4 losses is a mixed bag of results that highlights the problems they’ve had so far. As for the Seahawks, they are in the same group but dwell in the bottom position after 9 fixtures, with 4 wins and 5 losses.
