It also included $40 million guaranteed, making him the highest-paid tight end in the NFL.However, George Kittle does not want the growth in the TE market to stop. On Monday, Kittle spoke on 'The Dan Patrick Show' about wanting the valuation of tight ends to grow, while pushing for Raiders TE Brock Bowers to land a record-breaking deal in a few years."The only way for the tight end market to continue to grow is if everybody's getting paid," Kittle said. "That's the only way to do it. You can't just have one guy do it and then it just sits for four years because then you're stuck and it's stagnant with no one's getting paid."We want everybody, I want everybody to have great games... Throughout the rest of the season, they can play as well as they want to because I want guys to get paid, to keep bumping up that market so that by the time that Brock Bowers is doing his contract in three years, he's going for over $20 million, which he will."

"Me and Kyle have a great relationship. You know, I like to go golf with him down in Cabo in the off-season, and then I win football games with him in the fall. So there's just, he hold us all accountable."Kittle was not the only one who received a contract extension this offseason. The 49ers also handed a new deal to their quarterback, Brock Purdy.
