Jones said in an interview with Andrew Siciliano on the Rich Eisen Show that Kittle has looked solid as he continues his rehab.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.49erswebzone.com\/articles\/201231-weighs-george-kittles-chances-return\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Kittle always looks good<\/a>,\u201d Jones said, via David Bonilla of 49erswebzone.com. \u201cHe\u2019s always training hard and doing everything he can on his body. He\u2019s a wizard when it comes to that stuff. He spends a lot of money on his body and takes care of it, and I think it\u2019s going along well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not in his body, but he knows where he\u2019s at. He knows how he feels, and I\u2019m sure he\u2019s going to be ready at some point to go out there and rip it. So, that\u2019s Kittle\u2019s mindset.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kittle has said that he\u2019s pushing to be able to play Week 1 when the 49ers begin the season against the Rams in Australia. But he\u2019s also acknowledged that could be a challenge, given that he\u2019s the extensive travel component required for the game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"49ers tight end George Kittle is on the mend after suffering a torn Achilles during San Francisco\u2019s postseason&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":724893,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,99],"class_list":["post-724892","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/724892","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=724892"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/724892\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/724893"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=724892"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=724892"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=724892"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
