Almost every tight end and wide receiver in the NFL will say he takes blocking seriously.
But few take to it with the zeal of 49ers tight end George Kittle. The team’s best pass-catching threat would fit in well with the big guys blocking for Jimmy Garoppolo and Raheem Mostert.
In Sunday’s game against the Falcons, Kittle made a key block to help Mostert find his way to a 2-yard touchdown.

On first look, it appears Kittle and Falcons safety Ricardo Allen got tangled up in the endzone after Mostert’s touchdown.
