Open Extended ReactionsMoments after putting the finishing touches on his eighth NFL season, tight end George Kittle made it clear that he wants to finish his career where it started: with the San Francisco 49ers. Kittle told the "Bussin' With The Boys" podcast earlier that the deal was worth $76.4 million. The extension includes $40 million in guaranteed money, Kittle said, and will almost certainly lower Kittle's previously scheduled 2025 salary cap number of $22,085,000. Even if the extension doesn't guarantee that will happen, it undoubtedly gives Kittle a strong chance to reach a more short-term goal: joining the 49ers' 10-year club. He also surpassed Gronkowski for the second-most receiving yards by a tight end in his first eight seasons in the NFL (7,380), trailing only Kelce.
