The San Francisco 49ers will put everything on the line on Sunday, as the NFC West champions will go head-to-head with the Detroit Lions in the NFC Championship Game at Levi’s Stadium, with a trip to the Super Bowl in Las Vegas, Nevada, on the line.
One of the key players for the 49ers on Sunday will, without a doubt, be star tight end George Kittle, who had another solid season in San Francisco, racking up over 1,000 yards receiving and six touchdowns.
As usual, Kittle always wears something that draws the eye ahead of games, and ahead of the playoff showdown with the Lions on Sunday was no different.
The 30-year-old tight end walked into Levi’s Stadium rocking a shirt with his wife Claire Kittle on the front via the NFL’s Twitter account.

Here are some fan reactions to Kittle’s pregame outfit ahead of the NFC Championship Game at Levi’s Stadium in the Bay Area:

Along with winning over all the 49ers fans who watched this short video of him walking into the stadium on Sunday afternoon, Kittle will need to step up his game on the gridiron, as star quarterback Brock Purdy will be leaning on him to get the passing game going.
With versatile wide receiver Deebo Samuel not being 100% coming into this game against the Lions, Purdy will likely have to spread the ball around a bit more than usual, with Kittle potentially seeing more targets come his way.
It’ll be interesting to see how things pan out and which team will represent the NFC in the big game on February 11.
