It won't be long before Georg Kittle can afford all kinds of extra fun goodies. The San Francisco 49ers' All-Pro tight end is due a massive contract extension, which could get finalized this offseason.
That isn't stopping Kittle from getting a hold of some customized toys this offseason as he trains for his team's
Lengendary Revenge Tour.
Monarc Sport posted a video of the tight end working with one of its Seekers, a customizable robotic quarterback, in his backyard.
Kittle's is further customized with a photo of himself and the label "The People's Tight End" on the front. The top also features an image of the late Heath Ledger's Joker from the movie The Dark Knight, of whom Kittle has a
tattoo on his left arm.
Kittle, like other NFL players, isn't able to work with any of his teammates as stay-at-home orders remain in place amid the coronavirus pandemic. He is working on his own to stay in shape until teams are allowed to meet face-to-face and conduct on-field practices again.

Brock Purdy hopes to organize throwing session ahead of 49ers training camp
The San Francisco 49ers will hold a mandatory minicamp from June 4 through 6, officially concluding the team's offseason program. After that, the Niners will break for over a month and return to the Santa Clara facilities for training camp in late July.
Between that time, starting quarterbacks will often organize throwing sessions with their receivers in an effort to build chemistry ahead of the rigors of training camp. 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy has been unable to participate in such sessions over the last two years. The last overall draft pick in 2022, Purdy had yet to make a name for himself during his first offseason. Last year, he was still recovering from offseason surgery on his throwing arm.
