The San Francisco 49ers have had one of the best tight ends in the league since drafting George Kittle in the fifth round of the 2017 NFL Draft. Through eight seasons, the former Iowa Hawkeye has six Pro Bowls and five All-Pro honors to his name.<\/p>\n
Kittle has recorded 538 catches for 7,380 yards and 45 touchdowns thus far in his career. He has also missed just 19 games despite playing 85% or more of the team’s offensive snaps in every season since his rookie year.<\/p>\n
While his success between the lines is certainly something to marvel at, San Francisco also has one of the NFL’s most eccentric characters off the field. Kittle rose to national prominence after being featured in Netflix’s “Receiver” last year, and his countless ventures have captivated fans.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday, Kittle went through an interview on “Bussin With The Boys” with former NFL players Will Compton and Taylor Lewan. He talked a lot about his post-playing career, and to nobody’s surprise, he touched once again on his desire to potentially do World Wrestling Entertainment, better known as WWE.<\/p>\n
“I haven’t daydreamed about it or anything like that, but I’m definitely aware that there are potential opportunities and doors that could be open,” Kittle said. “So I’m just excited about that stuff. I would love to do WWE. I think there’s definitely opportunity within that world, and I would love nothing more than to be a part of it.”<\/p>\n
To anybody who watched the Netflix series or has been paying attention to Kittle at all during his career, these words come as no shock. The 6-foot-4, 250-pound monster was built for being a gladiator, and the man has to do something once he hangs up the cleats.<\/p>\n
