With 2021 NFL schedules being announced on Wednesday night, leave it to San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle to fire up the fans in the best way possible. That’s because the personable standout is sure to bring a smile to your face in his latest video.

George Kittle is clearly fired up for the 2021 season to arrive for the 49ers
If you’re laughing after watching that Twitter clip, we assure you that you’re not alone. Kittle gave the perfect intro and then let a mix of viral social media videos lead the way in letting fans know when San Francisco will be taking the field. In case you were confused by some of the clues, the team also dropped its schedule in a more traditional format as well.
Come Week 1, the NFC West powerhouse will open the campaign going up against the Detroit Lions and then follow things up against the Philadelphia Eagles and Green Bay Packers before a Week 4 showdown with the Seattle Seahawks.
As for Kittle, he missed most of 2020 due to a fractured bone in his foot. He appeared in eight games last campaign, hauling in 48 balls for 634 yards and two touchdowns. Now that he’s fully healthy, Kittle will look to get back to his usual Pro Bowl self and help the 49ers try and go on a run to bring home another division title next winter. The 2021 season can’t get here soon enough.
