George Kittle’s Revenge Tour
Kittle continues to do extensive work this offseason, which is evident in the video released today through Kittle’s offseason strength coach Josh Cuthbert.
Cuthbert said the following about this specific training video: “He got rogue here.”
Kittle is quoted after the Super Bowl loss to the Kansas City Chiefs as saying, “I will come back here and I will come back with maternal revenge.” He appears to be a man of his word.
Raheem Mostert talking to the team
NFL informant Ian Rappoport appeared yesterday on KNBR and said the following regarding Raheem Mostert’s meeting with senior executives:
“It appears they are in a much better place now than when the original message was delivered by their agent, Brett Tessler.”

These are some of the main stories of the San Francisco 49ers that toured social networks on Monday, July 20, 2020. No preseason? After players collectively tweeted #WeWantToPlay in response to the NFL’s safety plans, or lack thereof, around preparing for the 2020 season, the NFL has offered the players union zero preseason games. This is a great step for both the NFL and the NFLPA. By source, the league today offered the union zero preseason games. A big step.— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet)
PFF names 49ers runners battle as one to watch after Raheem Mostert requests trade

The San Francisco 49ers most likely won’t grant Raheem Mostert’s trade request, and the running back ends up leading the team’s fierce running attack this season. It was a big surprise last year, and really, in the playoffs, and he’s gained a bigger workload going forward. Mostert’s base salary of $ 2.575 million for 2020 is Tevin Coleman’s second $ 4.55 million between the Niners’ backs, if he doesn’t count fullback Kyle Juszczyk, of course. The team also has Jerick McKinnon, whose head coach Kyle Shanahan was on top after signing him in 2018. However, the injury has eliminated him from each of the past two seasons, so no one really knows what they have the 49ers there. Ben Linsey of Pro Football Focus

Some have criticized Raheem Mostert’s agent requesting an exchange given the size of the work sample that the San Francisco 49ers running back has on his resume. Others respect Mostert’s game and have no problem seeing that he gets paid what he apparently deserves. Mostert may not have started a game last season, but that just means he wasn’t the running back on the field when the 49ers’ offense took his first hit. He still led the 49ers with 772 yards rushing and ran into the end zone eight times while carrying the ball and twice more after hauling passes. Mostert is clearly the best running back on the list, and his agent, Brett Tessler, wants the 49ers to pay his client that way. An analyst, Bucky Brooks of NFL Media,
