Kyle Juszczyk thankful to return to 49ers, says the ‘juice is always worth the squeeze’

It seemed evident that Kyle Juszczyk would be returning to the San Francisco 49ers based on general manager John Lynch's comments from late Saturday night. That became official on Sunday when the team locked him up to a five-year, $27 million deal with $10 million in guarantees.

The best fullback in the league expressed his excitement about returning to the team he's been a part of since 2017. The $5.4 million average per season he'll be earning probably also contributed to the excitement.

"So incredibly thankful to be apart of this organization for 5 more years!" Juszczyk wrote via Instagram. "Thank you Faithful for the continuous support! Looking forward to showing that the juice is always worth the squeeze."

Team CEO Jed York shared that he is "fired up" to have Juszczyk returning. He also explained his own curious late-Saturday night tweet, which amusingly caused the hashtag #Kyle to trend on Twitter.

The new deal keeps Juszczyk under contract through the 2025 season.
