Kittle loves watching other tight ends play, and cheers all of them, so long as they are not that week's opponent. Maybe even then, so long as the opposing team doesn't win. Kittle helped launch National Tight End Day, which received some serious recognition from the NFL last season.
"Tight ends is kind of like a brotherhood, and it's a position that I want to see everyone succeed all the time," Kittle explained this past October. "I want to see tight ends scoring touchdowns. I want to see them blocking guys, pancaking guys, breaking tackles, pass [protection]. I like seeing it all. A day that you can recognize all the great tight ends across the league is a great day, and I'm looking forward to our second annual National Tight End Day."
