George Kittle breaks 49ers’ red zone jinx twice in win over Seahawks

One of George Kittle‘s many throwaway lines — and he’s got a million of ’em — is that someone is good at football. It may be a teammate, sometimes it’s an opponent, and he uses it in nearly every media setting. The 49ers tight end said it about Brock Purdy Thursday night after a 36-24 road win over the Seattle Seahawks.

It’s not one he uses on himself, although his teammates surely feel that way after Kittle punctured the 49ers’ red zone woes with two key touchdown receptions that helped prevent a third division implosion.
