Kyle Juszczyk gets fined for chugging celebration that NFL says was beer and he says was juice

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle credits the team's success in their 2-0 start of the 2026 season to continuity in their offense and standout individual talent. On The Rich Eisen Show, Kittle explained that the same starting offensive line, quarterback, fullback, running back, and tight end from the previous year have come together to create a cohesive unit.

The receiver room has seen some changes with the addition of wide receiver Mike Evans and return of tight end Deebo Samuel, but Kittle believes the team's success is due to the combination of a stable core and a proven veteran like Evans. Kittle specifically highlighted the exceptional skill of both Evans and Brock Purdy, saying, "Mike Evans, Hall of Famer, plays like a Hall of Famer still.

Every time we call a play and I know Mike has a chance getting the ball, I'm like, this is so sick — Brock Purdy's throwing the ball to Mike Evans and I'm blocking for him. What a dream come true."
