The 49ers left Tampa Bay with a 23-20 win over the Buccaneers and it was a collective effort across the board on both sides of the ball.

San Francisco’s Pro Football Focus grades show how running back Christian McCaffrey’s return might not have made a huge impact on the ground against a stout Buccaneers defensive line, but his presence in the passing game opened up opportunities for all pass-catchers.

Quarterback Brock Purdy spread the ball around to five different targets, who all accumulated yards after the catch, including Jauan Jennings, Ricky Pearsall, Deebo Samuel, George Kittle and McCaffrey.

TE George Kittle – 82.9

The All-Pro tight end was incredibly productive in the passing game, but a lower (30.7) pass-blocking score, due to one hurry, brought down his overall grade. Kittle caught three of his four targets for 57 yards, including a toe-tapping…
