San Francisco 49ers All-Pro tight end George Kittle was absent for the start of the 49ers' offseason program this week, notably while he is seeking a new contract with the team.
The Athletic's Dianna Russini reported on Wednesday to X: "Brock Purdy's appearance at 49ers OTAs is a positive sign as extension talks continue between San Francisco and its QB. George Kittle's absence is also contract related, sources say. And the two sides remain far apart."
