THE San Francisco 49ers have reunited with one of their key players after a brief split.
The team will bring back the 33-year-old who has been to nine Pro Bowls during his career.

The news comes just days after a shock announcement he was being released.
Kyle Juszczyk has agreed a two-year, $8 million contract with the 49ers.
He was cut on Tuesday in a decision to save the team $6.5 million in cap space for 2025.
But Juszczyk and the 49ers have agreed to new terms to extend his stay in the Bay Area.
The 33-year-old full back has been with the 49ers since 2017.
He graduated out of Harvard in 2012 and was with the Baltimore Ravens from 2013 to 2016.
He told ESPN in January that he still has more to give.
“I know I’m not done,” Juszczyk said.
“I’m definitely not done playing. I’ve seen zero regression.
“I think especially, I mean, you can turn on the last two games and please show me where I’ve regressed.

“So I have no plans of stopping.”
The fullback was named to the Pro Bowl every year he played for the 49ers.
He was a first-team All-Pro in 2023 and a second-team All Pro in 2024.
The 33-year-old also played in San Francisco’s two painful Super Bowl losses.
They were beaten by the Kansas City Chiefs on both occasions.
But the 33-year-old is determined to win a Super Bowl ring either in San Francisco or elsewhere.
He said, “I want to win a ring here.
“But if I’m forced to do it somewhere else, I’ve still got so much football left in me.
“I still love the game so much.
“I’m still playing at a high level and I know there’s teams out there that can use me.”
