Feed him the damn ball. He's got talent there is zero reason to not use him in the passing game like Kittle.

He will get all of kittles looks now for the rest of the playoffs and all of next year so you don't need to worry about targets at this point.

Yep, he will have to be our #1 TE going forward.

He's a real good player. Just slow. Wish he was a little faster. But does everything else really well for a backup.

He's faster and more nimble than Brent Jones, he'll be fine

He's not that's slow. He had Mitchell beat but Purdy threw a really bad ball and it was well behind Jake. If they actually utilize him like Kittle this dude will perform.

Not all. I think Juice will be more central

I thought when Kittle went down last week Tonges would get a lot more looks. I'm not too confident he will get a ton of targets this week either, although he should.

There's definitely a chance he doesn't do anything this game, but from what he's shown hes capable of taking on a bigger stance in the offense if given the opportunity.

Don't know why they haven't extended him yet. They like to wait until guys get more expensive I guess

Since Kyle pulled out the WR toss to CMC pass trickery tomfoolery against the Eagles, I wonder if he'll dust off the old Bill Walsh TE trickery. He's run it against Seattle B4. With great success. That was a Purdy beauty from the 49ers West Coast Offense past.
