On a day where injuries derailed the 49ers offense, George Kittle summed the outing up with a brutally honest assessment following Sunday’s 31–7 loss to the Eagles in the NFC Championship game.
The star tight end contributed three catches for 32 yards in the contest, though it’s fair to wonder if Kittle’s impact may have been greater had quarterback Brock Purdy not suffered an early-game elbow injury. To make matters worse, backup Josh Johnson struggled mightily prior to exiting the game with a concussion, forcing San Francisco to turn back to a hampered Purdy who could hardly throw.
