Kyle Shanahan has glowing update on George Kittle after TE's surgery

Key Highlights

• But, I heard it went great.
• I heard it was a very successful surgery and could have a chance to come back a lot sooner than we used to think back in the day with Achilles.
• So, it was all good news.”It's unlikely we get any additional updates on Kittle any time soon.
• The club won't be back together until sometime in early-to-mid April to begin their offseason program which is when we may get another check in on the TE.
• It isn't likely he'll be ready for the start of the year given the typical return-to-play timeline for Achilles tears, but it sounds like Shanahan is hopeful he can be back in action sooner than expected.
