The San Francisco 49ers were this close to being crowned Super Bowl champions in the just-concluded NFL season. However, following the Kansas City Chiefs' win, the team remains searching for their first Super Bowl win in the 21st century.
Ahead of the 2024 NFL season, the 49ers are doing all they can to stay competitive. That starts with getting some well-paid stars to restructure their current contracts.
The 49ers have restructured star tight end George Kittle's contract, creating almost $10 million in salary cap space, per NFL rumors. Kittle inked a five-year, $75 million deal with San Francisco in 2020, and his contract initially called for him to make $13.4 million in base salary this season and count $21.956 million against the cap.
