Mandatory Credit: Kelley L Cox-USA TODAY Sports The tight end had a glorious year with 65 receptions, 1,020 receiving yards, and six touchdowns. He’s also ranked 22nd on the NFL Top 100 Players of 2022 and was a First-Team All-Pro in 2019 and 2023. George Kittle’s early life and background George Kittle was born in Madison, Wisconsin, United States. His parents are Bruce Kittle, and Jan Krieger. Bruce Kittle is a former football coach who played for the University of Iowa. His mom, Jan Krieger, is a legend in the Iowa Girls’ High School Athletic Union Hall of Fame. Not only did she play softball, but she also dominated basketball at Drake University, earning All-America honors. His sister, Emma Kittle, is also a professional volleyball player. Having been born into a sporting family, Kittle couldn’t help but carry on these athletic genes. Currently, George Kittle is one of the best tight ends in the franchise. But initially, he faced struggles in his college career. He attended the University of Iowa, characterized by challenges and slow transformation. Kittle originally joined the football team as a low-recruit, not receiving a Division I scholarship offer until signing day in 2012. He even faced difficulty in getting versed in college norms, both academically and athletically. He began to show his potential in his later years at Iowa. In 2013, his progress rate saw a massive increase when, despite being fifth on the department chart as a red-shirt freshman, his speed positively impacted the team’s offense. A lifestyle change and commitment to growth were evident in his senior year when he became the key player for the Hawkeyes. This included improved run-blocking skills and massive physical development, which made him one of the best tight ends in the league. This has set the stage for his impressive NFL journey with the San Francisco 49ers. Â  Â  Â  Â George Kittle’s wife George Kittle and his Wife, Claire Kittle, have been among the sweetest couples in NFL history. The duo started dating during their first year at the University of Iowa. Like George, Claire is also a sports enthusiast. She played basketball at Wahlert Catholic High School. At the University of Iowa, she played for the Hawkeyes all four years, averaging 1.6 points and 1.9 rebounds per game. The love birds first met in 2012 at the University of Iowa when the tight end was standing outside the dormitory and he saw Claire in the parking lot. On August 10, 2018, the pro-tight end planned for a surprise proposal where Kittle planned to stage a perfect scene and cleverly told Claire that the 49ers staff were doing a photoshoot for NFL couples. However, a twist happened when George Kittle faced a minor hiccup when he injured his knee during a preseason game. Initially, Claire became suspicious, but George’s mother took care of the matter by saying, “ Claire, I know you might be thinking that he’s going to propose, but I know that he isn’t because the ring isn’t ready yet.” Jan 28, 2024; Santa Clara, California, USA; San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (85) hugs his wife Claire Kittle before the NFC Championship football game against the Detroit Lions at Levi’s Stadium.

Later, they surprised their fans by tying the knot in April 2019, two years after their engagement, and George’s father officiated the wedding. Claire has always been George’s biggest supporter and was present at every game he played.
