Kyle Juszczyk, 33, has been a vital force in the San Francisco 49ers’ offense since his arrival in 2017, when he was brought on board by head coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch.
Over his six seasons with the team, Juszczyk has established himself as one of the premier fullbacks in the NFL, earning eight Pro Bowl selections and impressively securing first-team All-Pro honors in 2023.
The recent announcement regarding his future has sent shockwaves throughout the league, eliciting reactions from players and fans alike, particularly those who know him best. George Kittle, a fellow 49ers tight end who was drafted the same year Juszczyk signed with the team, expressed his admiration in a heartfelt Instagram post, referring to him as “Day one juice,” highlighting their long-standing camaraderie and the impact Juszczyk has had on the team and its culture.
This shows the deep respect and appreciation that teammates have for Juszczyk as a leader and a player within the organization.
