Several teammates have been sharing their thoughts on Staley's retirement via social media, as fellow offensive lineman Mike McGlinchey did on Saturday.
George Kittle also decided to share his thoughts via a video posted to social media. In it, the All-Pro tight end thanked Staley for everything he did for the team, and for him, personally.
"I've loved lining up next to you on the left side for the last three years," Kittle said.
The understandably emotional Kittle also shares what he learned from Staley, and the memories he has of his now-former teammate. You can watch the video featuring Kittle below.
Staley responded to Kittle's video.
