A year ago, Kittle missed the 49ers’ first two games because of a groin injury.Kittle’s availability should be good news from Brock Purdy, who connected with Kittle on seven of his career-high 11 touchdown catches last season. Kittle has at least four catches in each of his previous season openers, including eight receptions (54 yards) in the 2019 opening win at Tampa Bay. Two weeks after that game, Kittle had six catches (57 yards) in the 49ers’ 24-20 win over the Steelers at Levi’s Stadium.INACTIVE LISTCornerback Charvarius Ward, the only other player listed as questionable, is active and expected to start.Inactive are quarterback Brandon...Man dies after being shot, hit by car in downtown Oakland
