Kyle Juszczyk is benefiting from fullbacks becoming a dying breed in the NFL. Of course, there is no doubt that he is one of the best among the shrinking group.

The fullback is a featured piece of the San Francisco 49ers offense. No NFL fullback has played more snaps than Juszczyk's 187, has more receiving yards than his 265, or more rushing yards than his 21.


Juszczyk is likely headed toward his third-straight Pro Bowl selection. He currently leads all fullbacks in voting with 229,543.


Juszczyk is in his second season with San Francisco. The 49ers made him the highest paid fullback in the league upon signing him to a four-year deal worth up to $21 million last year.

There is hope that tight end George Kittle can also make a push toward a Pro Bowl selection. He is on pace to set a franchise record for receiving yards by a tight end and his 775 yards receiving rank third in the NFL among tight ends.

Zach Ertz of the Philadelphia Eagles currently leads NFC tight ends in Pro Bowl voting.

The Pro Bowl will be played on January 27, 2019, at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Florida.
