George Kittle joined Good Morning Football on Friday and when asked about this year's expectations, said his goal going into a new season is to win every game. He knows that probably won't happen but that is his mindset.
"We're going to do everything that we can to go out there and be incredibly competitive and whoop up on some people," Kittle said.
Burleson asked Kittle, "You know there's
Russell Wilson in Seattle, right?"
"Hey, you know we've got Richard Sherman, right?" Kittle responded.
"You know the Rams are the team in the NFC West," Burleson then said. "That's what they're saying."
"I've got DeForest Buckner," Kittle said.
"I heard that
Kyler Murray was going to the Cardinals too," Burleson added.
Kittle came back with, "I've got Kyle Shanahan," and then banged on the table.
Burleson was left impressed with the responses.

49ers hosted Clemson CB Nate Wiggins on pre-draft visit
Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports that former Clemson cornerback Nate Wiggins was among the draft prospects the San Francisco 49ers hosted on Top-30 visits.

Rapoport: 49ers send clear message to teams inquiring about Brandon Aiyuk
Ian Rapoport didn't offer much of an update on the ongoing contract negotiations between the San Francisco 49ers and their standout wide receiver, Brandon Aiyuk. However, the NFL insider emphasized one thing: The team is not entertaining trade discussions at this juncture.
Reacting to Aiyuk's decision to unfollow the 49ers on Instagram, Rapoport couldn't help but chuckle at the latest development. This practice has become commonplace among players who are unhappy with their contract situations. Wide receiver Deebo Samuel similarly took this action in 2022 before requesting to be traded just before the draft.
