Kittle is entering the final year of his rookie contract and the two sides have been discu sing a deal that will keep him in the Bay Area beyond 2020."George is a pro, and he's planning on coming and we're going to continue to work," Lynch told the Murph & Mac Show, as transcribed by . "That's our job, to get that done. I'd be disappointed if we didn't, so we're working towards that. I can tell you we're working in earnest because Evgeny Svechnikov Men Jersey it's very important to us, and the good news is it's very important to them that we agree because he loves being a 49er."Rumblings surrounding a mega-extension for Kittle have been around when reports surfaced that it was the 49ers' intention to make him the highest-paid tight end in the league. More recently, that suggest Kittle could earn a contract that pays him Michael Rasmussen Kids Jersey $13 million annually, which would dwarf current AAV with the of $10.5 million, which is the league-high at the position. Currently, Kittle is slated to make just over $2.1 million in base salary for 2020 with the 49ers. Kittle is easily one of the top two tight ends in the league, if not the best of the bunch at the Martin Frk Women Jersey position. In 2018, he broke the single-season record for most receiving yards (1,377) by a tight end in NFL history. He just posted back-to-back seasons with over 1,000 yards receiving and was named first-team All-Pro for his efforts in 2019.Lynch noted that he's been in close contact with Kittle's agent, Jack Bechta, and the coaching staff has spoken with Kittle regularly. "We're hopeful," Lynch said of getting a deal done. "We're going to work extremely hard. George is such a great fit for what we do. He's a tremendous player. (I'm) sitting here looking at the vision statement for what we want in a player, and George Alex Delvecchio Jersey checks every box. He's tremendous. He's what we want to be. So I think it would be silly not to figure that out, so we're going to do our best to do just that."
