George Kittle: 49ers have "lofty expectations" for 2025
Our Summary
The San Francisco 49ers have made significant roster changes this offseason, a move General Manager John Lynch described as "a little uneasy" but essential. Despite losing key players like Safety Talanoa Hufanga and linebacker Dre Greenlaw, tight end George Kittle remains optimistic about the team's prospects. He acknowledges the loss of notable players but believes the team has effectively addressed these gaps through strategic free agency signings and drafts. Kittle highlights the importance of maintaining a high-level offense, expressing excitement about the returning offensive lineup, including stars like Christian McCaffrey and Brock Purdy. The team's commitment is underscored by strong participation in the voluntary offseason program, aiming to improve upon last season's 6-11 record.
