George Kittle is starting to heat up a little for the San Francisco 49ers.

Kittle made 5 catches for 40 yards in a season opening win over the New York Jets but didn’t find the end zone. He made his first touchdown catch of the season in a loss to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 2, then missed Week 3 vs. the Los Angeles Rams before scoring in a Week 4 win over the New England Patriots.

Fast forward to Sunday, and a Week 5 contest against the Arizona Cardinals that saw Brock Purdy connect with Kittle for a 5-yard touchdown. Here’s video of the play that saw the Niners take the lead over the Cardinals at Levi’s Stadium:

The Niners dropeed back-to-back games after opening with a victory against the Jets, but got back in the win column against the Patriots. They’ll look to make it two wins in a row as they face an NFC West foe on home soil.

49ers-Cardinals is on FOX.
