George Kittle is PFF’s highest-graded player from 49ers-Eagles while Nick Mullens is lowest-graded

George Kittle had a historic night during the San Francisco 49ers' 25-20 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. The All-Pro tight end hauled in 15 passes on 15 targets for 183 yards and a score.

Pro Football Focus released its grades from Sunday's game, and Kittle earned the game's highest grade for either team from the analytics site.

On defense, D-lineman Kevin Givens earned the highest grade, albeit on limited snaps. The highest-graded defender with a significant number of snaps was defensive end Kerry Hyder, who finished the game with four tackles, a quarterback hit, and 0.5 sacks, per Pro Football Reference.
