The San Francisco 49ers offense helplessly watched from the sidelines as the Chiefs took the final snaps to cap off a double-digit comeback and 31-20 win in Super Bowl 54.
It was a game that the 49ers thoroughly controlled for the first 50 minutes of game action, but they just couldn’t hold on once the prolific Chiefs offense gained momentum.
Instead of sulking, though, George Kittle took those final moments as motivation for next season. NFL Films aired its Super Bowl edition of Inside the NFL on Tuesday, and we could hear as Kittle vowed to get right back to the Super Bowl.
In the mic’d-up video, Kittle could be heard telling teammate Ahkello Witherspoon:
“I will be back here. I will be back here, and I will be back with a mother(expletive) vengeance.”
Kittle had four receptions for 36 yards in the frustrating loss. Despite being one of the league’s best tight ends, he didn’t find the end zone in the postseason and had just eight receptions. But 49ers fans will love to see that attitude from Kittle as the team heads into the offseason.
