Later on Monday, San Francisco fullback Kyle Juszczyk voiced solidarity with his bestie and teammate George Kittle after the team achieved a 23-19 Wild Card upset over the Philadelphia Eagles.

"We play real ball in San Francisco," Juszczyk posted on Instagram shortly after the team confirmed Kittle suffered a season-ending torn Achilles during Sunday's game.

Along with Kittle, the 49ers also played without All-Pros Nick Bosa and Fred Warner as they advanced to the Divisional Round against the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday.

Meanwhile, Juszczyk also decided to acknowledge his family. He shared another photo featuring his wife, Kristin (center in white top/fur vest), and family members at Lincoln Financial Field:

"So lucky to have the best fam who travels the whole country to support @juicecheck44," Juszczyk captioned.

Kittle and Juszczyk, the team's most veteran offensive partnership, have been with the organization since 2017.

Juszczyk was briefly released in March 2025 amidst Kittle's public mourning. He returned shortly to sign a two-year, $8 million deal a month later, and the fullback rejoined the team for the season.

Kittle has playfully described the Harvard alumnus as his "football wife," including their selection to the 2026 Pro Bowl Games at the Moscone Center.

Additionally, Juszczyk draws attention to Christian McCaffrey's performance, sharing a celebratory photo set to the Red Hot Chili Peppers' "Can't Stop."

In the victory over Philadelphia, the running back recorded 114 scrimmage yards, two fourth-quarter touchdowns, and the game-winner.

McCaffrey surpassed Colin Kaepernick for fourth place in franchise history, becoming one of only four players to record over 100 yards in five consecutive playoff games.
