Tyler Lockett
Anytime Touchdown +280 (FanDuel)
Lockett, who was fifth in the league in touchdowns with nine, had a six-game touchdown streak before suffering a finger injury on Dec. 15.
While he didn’t score in two games against the 49ers in the regular season, he had a bevy of looks – 20 targets, three red-zone targets and 16 receptions.
With Lockett lining up in the slot on occasion, he’s actually more dangerous than DK Metcalf, who lines up primarily on the outside. The 49ers have allowed six touchdowns out of the slot over the last four games.
I also like Metcalf quite a bit in this matchup because of the red-zone targets, but Lockett has shown he can score from anywhere.

George Kittle
Anytime Touchdown +150 (bet365)
George Kittle racked up 11 touchdowns over the regular season, which tied for third in the league. Notably, seven of them came over the last four games.
The last time he faced Seattle, Kittle went off for 93 yards and two touchdowns. He’s tallied four touchdowns in total in two of his last three games against the Seahawks.
Further supporting this play is the fact that Seattle graded out as the worst DVOA team against tight ends this season, with eight touchdowns allowed to the position.
Brock Purdy taking over at quarterback has also been a big plus. Kittle has 24 catches on 35 targets and seven scores in six games with the rookie. I expect the 49ers to run the ball most of the game, but the Purdy-Kittle connection is undeniable.
