The team has decided to bid goodbye to Juszczyk after he has spent the last eight seasons with the 49ers. This move of partying away with the veteran has been disappointing for his teammates George Kittle and Brock Purdy.

One of the biggest achievement of Juszczyk was he has bagged Pro Bowl honors every season in San Francisco. This move for his release comes a week after the 49ers traded Deebo Samuel to the Washington Commanders.

“You are too great of a player to play on teams like this,” George Kittle reacts after Kyle Juszczyk’s exit




Taking to the social media X, Kittle reacted with a painful emoji. He posted a broken heart and a small juice container emoji. He tweeted, “Why do you want to stay and be a part of this disaster? You are too great of a player to play on teams like this (@jkingy21).”

Kittle also shared an old picture of him and Juszczyk on the walls of Instagram, which seems to be abit nostalgic moment for him, cherishing the good old days. He captioned it as “Day one juice.”

Kittle and Juszczyk share a deep bond of friendship which is beyond the field. They both joined the 49ers in the year 2017 and since then developed a family bond.

The relationship is not only between them but their wives Claire Kittle and Kristin Juszczyk, who share a strong bonding over the years.

With it comes to his salary cap, Juszczyk’s last drawn salary with the 49ers was $3,606,750 and reports suggested that by 2025 he could earn double of it.

He also took a pay cut last offseason and earned a base salary of $4.1 million in 2025, adding a bonus of $100,000. Looking into the financial scale, the 49ers are going to save $3 million with the release of Juszczyk.

Though the last season did not go well for the team but Juszczyk had the support of his teammates. He recorded 200 receiving yards, averaging 10.5 yards per game.



With this saddest exit, it has been heard that Juszczyk yet wants to continue playing in the NFL but might not with his favorite Kittle by his side.
