Kittle remains an elite option at the tight end position and doesn't look to be slowing down anytime soon. Kittle finished last year as the TE1 in fantasy points per game, and it's like no one cares as they rank him as the third tight end in fantasy heading into 2025. Deebo Samuel is gone. Brandon Aiyuk's health and effectiveness are up in the air for 2025. Will Jauan Jennings continue his breakout, or will Ricky Pearsall fulfill the promise of his draft capital? There are a ton of questions in the 49ers' passing attack in 2025, but Kittle isn't one of them. He has been excellent and should continue that string of fantasy dominance. Last year, Kittle ranked sixth in target share, first in yards per route run, third in yards after the catch per reception, and second in first downs per route run (per Fantasy Points Data). He was also flooded with high-leverage usage, ranking fifth in deep targets and second in red zone targets among tight ends. Kittle could see more volume in 2025 and repeat as the TE1.

George Kittle signs 4-year extension with the 49ers

George Kittle has signed a 4-year, $76.4 million deal with the 49ers.

Fantasy Impact

Kittle is coming off two consecutive 1,000-yard seasons as an integral piece of the 49ers offense. The contract will take him into his age-35 season and is likely his last big payday. He should continue to get peppered with targets in the 49ers offense now featuring Ricky Pearsall, Brandon Aiyuk, and Jauan Jennings on the outside.
