A very busy Sunday, a lot to catch you up on. Let's get started right now on fantasy football today in five.

Good morning. Welcome to week nine. Adam Azer here with Heath Cummings and so much news to get to.

And if you're relying on those backup replacement running backs, might not be the best week.

McCaffrey back Montgomery, maybe back Jeff Wilson's going to be activated. What does that mean for Eli Mitchell?

Before I forget, I want to start with George Kittle. He's back very excited about that. Heath, can you trust George Kittle this week?

I think I'm going to use George Kittle anywhere. I don't have a tight end that I feel really good about.

He came out initially at tight end nine in my projections. And I had bumped him up like all the way up to four or five just because he's George Kittle.

Then the report came out that he's going to be on a pitch count.

May only play half the snaps. And so I'll probably get him back to that nine range.

I would start Kyle Pitz Dalton Schultz, Mike Gassicki over Kittle. I'm still going to start Kittle over Fryermouth, Conkland and Arnold Zacker. It's that type.

Jared Cook. For sure. Okay.

Arizona passing game. And I we won't bury the lead. I'm Christian McCaffrey much longer.

But let Arizona passing game. They have the later game against the 49ers. So we may not know. I feel like we'll probably know.

But Kyler Hopkins, how are we approaching this whole situation?

I feel like we kind of do know just because of what's happened with the Vegas line in this game. It opened at Arizona minus three. I think with an over under right around 45 this morning, it's San Francisco minus three.

So it's been a six point swing this week. One of Kyler or Deontre Hopkins. I don't believe will play. I kind of think both are not going to play.

The best thing you could do is if you had a late replacement who was just as good as your early replacement. But if I don't have somebody in one of those late games, a Sunday night game, the Monday night game that I feel okay about starting.

I'm probably just going to sit them and play my guy in the early game.

Okay. And I'm just seeing now devastating that we did not get Trevor Simeon in our super flex league that we share. So it's like we're starting a wide receiver at super flex.

So Christian McCaffrey. They said he might be honest that he will be on a snap count today. Is he a start?

Probably. I've got him right around 15 to 20 in the rankings. I do think listen, they had like 45 running back opportunities last week. They really want to get back to running the ball.

So I think there could still be enough touches for him, even if he splits evenly with Chuba Hubbard. But again, I don't want to. I'm not going to start Christian McCaffrey over Darryl Henderson or even Joe Mixon or Cordero Patterson.
