George Kittle will be working on routes in the 2019 offseason

George Kittle is a beast. He sits with the record for most receiving yards in a season by a tight end as well as several 49ers team records for the position. He was also five yards short of the most receiving yards in a single game by a tight end. Needless to say, he needs to sustain himself, not work on something. Or does he?

Turns out, Kittle himself says he’s only the third best in route running among all the tight ends Kyle Shanahan has coached. Now, as far as the extensiveness of this pool, we won’t go into, but Kittle found something to work on.
