Kittle, 30, is a former fifth-round pick of the 49ers out of Iowa back in 2017. He was entering the final year of his four-year, $2.69 million contract and set to make a base salary of $735,000 in 2020 when he agreed to a new five-year, $75 million extension with the 49ers.
Kittle is in the fourth year of his deal and is set to make a salary of $13,400,000 in 2024.
In 2024, Kittle has appeared in two games for the 49ers and caught 11 passes for 116 yards receiving and a touchdown.
