NFL analyst names potential landing spot for 49ers star George Kittle - Getty
George Kittle was at the Super Bowl 11 months ago and now, he's fighting for his seat at the NFL table. The 49ers star tight end delivered as consistently as any player on the field in the Monday Night Football showdown against the Detroit Lions, racking up eight catches for 112 yards and he wasn't doing it just for fun.
At least, that is what one NFL analyst believes. On Tuesday's edition of "Pro Football Talk," Mike Florio claimed the performance was a statement.
[00:03:36] "He popped last night any time he had the ball in his hands and I think the message is simple: 'I can still play and don't try to come with me in the off-season and get me to take less to still be here. Because if you want to cut me, I still got it. And one of these other contenders out there, like maybe the Lions will want me,'" Florio said.
