An unidentified NFL team expressed interest in trading for San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle approximately one week before he agreed to terms on a four-year, $76.4 million contract extension, according to a source. The 49ers were reportedly offered a second-round 2025 draft pick in exchange for Kittle.

San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle agreed to a four-year contract extension worth $76.4 million earlier this week, but not before an unnamed team reportedly offered the 49ers a second-round draft pick during the 2025 NFL Draft.
Huddle Up: There is a strong possibility we will learn who the mystery team was at some point in the months ahead, but all that matters is that the 31-year-old Kittle is still valued highly enough by the organization that they declined a solid offer. Kittle is now the highest-paid tight end in the league and should be in great shape to have another banner season as San Francisco looks for players to earn the touches and targets left behind by the trade of Deebo Samuel.

San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle agreed to a four-year, $76.4 million extension Tuesday, April 29. The deal includes $40 million guaranteed and makes him the highest-paid tight end in the league.
Huddle Up: Kittle was the TE3 in PPR leagues despite playing in 15 games and being banged up for a few more on a struggling team. That figures to be his basement in 2025.

Updating a previous report, San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle appeared at the team's facility for offseason conditioning Friday, April 25, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo. Both sides are continuing to discuss a contract extension.
Huddle Up: Kittle had been a no-show for the first few days of voluntary workouts. He is entering the final year of his current deal and is slated to earn a base salary of $14.4 million in 2025, although none of it is guaranteed. Despite a disappointing season for the 49ers overall last year, Kittle still managed to catch 94 passes for 1,108 yards and eight touchdowns over 15 games and should be one of the first few tight ends drafted in all fantasy formats.

San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle refuted a report that he failed to report to voluntary workouts because of his contract negotiations. The Athletic's Dianna Russini reported that Kittle wants to be the highest-paid TE in the NFL and that Kittle and the 49ers remain far apart in contract talks. Kittle tweeted out "Your source is incorrect."
Huddle Up: Kittle was the TE3 in fantasy despite playing in 15 games. He had a 94-1,106-8 line and figures to be a top-five TE again.

San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle did not report for the start of the offseason program on Tuesday, April 22.
Huddle Up: Kittle and the team are not close to agreeing to terms on a contract extension. He is entering the final year of his contract and is set to earn a $14.4 million base salary, but none of it is guaranteed. Trey McBride leads all NFL tight ends with a $19 million annual average, which is probably about what Kittle is asking for. It seems likely at this point that an extension for Kittle may not come until after the start of training camp.

San Francisco 49ers QB Brock Purdy and TE George Kittle may not participate in voluntary activities this spring as both players seek long-term extensions, according to Mike Silver of The Athletic.
Huddle Up: Fred Warner is also in that group, but he is expected to report. Silver is hearing that progress is being made with Purdy's contract, but there appears to be some uncertainty if he will report. Ditto for Kittle. The 49ers have a recent history of taking their time with extensions, but at least the Purdy deal does not feel like it will take all summer.

San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle has had contract extension talks with the 49ers this offseason but an agreement may take some time because the 49ers have other things to work out, according to general manager John Lynch.
Huddle Up: Kittle has been a reliable option for the 49ers and fantasy players for multiple seasons and should see a good amount of targets again in 2025. He will be a weekly starting option in all fantasy leagues.

San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle led all tight ends with 14.2 yards per reception this season.
Huddle Up: Kittle also finished third at the position in receiving yards and tied for second in touchdowns. He doesn't pile up receptions like some of the other top tight ends, but his explosiveness allows for excellent production on lower usage. He remains a high-end TE1.

San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle caught two passes for 27 yards in a 47-24 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 18.
