BREAKING: Caitlin Clark Posts 1-Word Message for George Kittle After NFL Season

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle recently capped his eighth NFL season, expressing his desire to remain with the franchise he’s called home since 2017.

While reflecting on the highs and lows of his career, Kittle shared a heartfelt Instagram post that caught the attention of fans and athletes alike, including WNBA star Caitlin Clark.

Kittle’s post featured a series of photos and videos from his time with the 49ers.

“It is not the strength of the body, but the strength of the spirit! Year 8!,” he captioned.

Among the many reactions, Clark’s simple yet emphatic comment, “Him!!!” stood out.

Kittle’s connection to Clark isn’t new, as the Iowa natives share a common bond through their alma mater, the University of Iowa. Both athletes have proudly represented the Hawkeyes, with Kittle supporting Iowa women’s basketball during Clark’s standout collegiate career.

Reflecting on his season, Kittle was a consistent force for the 49ers, amassing 1,106 receiving yards and eight touchdowns, per ESPN, despite injuries sidelining key offensive teammates.

Kittle’s reliability and leadership have cemented his status as a fan favorite, with many speculating about a potential contract extension as he enters the final year of his current deal.

Addressing the rumor, Kittle expressed his unwavering loyalty to the 49er.

“I want to be a Niner for my entire career. I love wearing the red and gold, and whatever the front office decides, I’m all ears,” he said as shared by 95.7 The Game.

For Caitlin Clark, her interaction with Kittle adds another layer to her impressive year, which included her WNBA debut with the Indiana Fever and memorable moments from her final season at Iowa.

As the offseason begins, Kittle remains optimistic about his future with the 49ers, while Clark continues to inspire on and off the court.
