After six games out with a fractured foot, George Kittle returned for the 49ers’ 20-12 win over the Cardinals on Saturday and Jerry Rice had a noteworthy observation about the tight end’s return.
“It was good to see George Kittle get back on the field,” Rice told the Morning Roast during his weekly appearance on 95.7 The Game.
“It’s so funny. I’m watching George Kittle catch the ball and he’s looking for somebody to hit,” Rice said with a laugh. “He’s trying to seek someone out to run over or run into. So, it was great having him back on the field.”
In Kittle’s return, his first action since the Nov. 1 loss to the Seahawks, 37-27, the veteran led the club with 92 yards on four receptions.
