49ers tight end George Kittle will look to bounce back in 2021 after an injury-plagued season last year, which points him to another All-Pro nod.

When it comes to determining who the best tight end in the NFL today is, most fans are going to take one of two sides: the Kansas City ChiefsTravis Kelce or the San Francisco 49ersGeorge Kittle.

Kelce might own the single-season record for most receiving yards by a tight end (1,416), set last year when he broke Kittle’s previous record of 1,377 set back in 2018 and also, subsequently, breaking Kelce’s brief hold on the record earlier that day in Week 17.
