Kittle's Super Bowl Wish: Both Teams Lose!
9 Feb
Summary
- Kittle wants neither team to win Super Bowl 60 at his stadium.
- His season ended due to a torn Achilles in the playoffs.
- Seahawks eliminated 49ers with a record-setting playoff loss.
San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle has a peculiar hope for Super Bowl 60, which is set to be played at Levi's Stadium. Kittle stated his wish is for "both teams lose" during the championship game between the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots. This sentiment comes after a challenging period for the star player. His season was cut short by a torn Achilles injury sustained during the NFC Wild Card round.
Further compounding Kittle's difficult postseason, the 49ers were decisively eliminated by the Seattle Seahawks. The team suffered a devastating 41-6 loss, marking their worst playoff defeat in decades. Given that his ideal outcome is impossible, Kittle might prefer a Patriots victory, as the Seahawks are a divisional rival who have recently defeated the 49ers and even dismissed the team's rivalry status. The Patriots, conversely, have less historical animosity with the 49ers.
