George Kittle on Super Bowl LX at Levi's Stadium: 'I Hope Both Teams Lose'

The All-Pro is recovering from an Achilles injury with his team watching the title game from home.

Overview

  • Kittle joked he might play video games instead of tuning in and acknowledged he probably will not skip the broadcast.
  • He made the remark when asked where he and his wife, Claire, would watch, noting she usually makes him watch Super Bowls he is not in.
  • He suffered an Achilles injury in the Wild Card game against the Eagles, and the 49ers were eliminated the next week by the Seahawks.
  • Super Bowl LX is set for Levi's Stadium, adding local tension over which rival fans prefer to see win on their home field.
  • 49ers Webzone published the comments and credited Niners Wire's Mike Masala, reporting that many viewers favor Seattle while many 49ers fans lean Patriots to avoid a division rival celebrating in Santa Clara.
