George Kittle Commits to San Francisco 49ers with Significant Contract Extension

San Francisco 49ers’ star tight end George Kittle has officially solidified his future with the team by signing a substantial four-year contract extension worth $76.4 million. This lucrative agreement, which guarantees $40 million for Kittle, ensures he remains a key player for the 49ers—his sole NFL team since his 2017 draft debut.

Kittle’s ambition is to wrap up his career with the 49ers and earn a place in the prestigious 10-year club, an honor given to franchise players who dedicate a decade or more to the team. The 2024 season was a remarkable one for Kittle, as he ranked third in receiving yards among tight ends and was tied for the second-highest number of touchdowns. This performance further underscores his value and commitment to the team.
