Kristin Juszczyk has revealed why her husband Kyle decided to sign a new contract with the San Francisco 49ers.

It was announced on Saturday morning that full back Juszczyk will be returning to the 49ers on a two-year, $8million contract just days after being cut.

The Niners had officially released Juszczyk on Tuesday instead of paying him a $4.1m salary this season and up to an additional $500,000 in offseason workout and per-game roster bonuses.

The team took on a $3.6m ᴅᴇᴀᴅ cap charge with the move but brought him back on the new deal. Juszczyk was nearly cut last season but agreed to take a pay cut to stay in San Francisco.

The couple are clearly delighted to stay in San Francisco, with influencer and fashion designer Kristin explaining their reasons to stay in a heartfelt Instagram post.

She wrote: ‘This past week has really made Kyle and I reflect on our past 8 years in the Bay.

‘We grew up here. We turned friends into family here. We won championships here and we lost championships here. We feel so incredibly blessed to have called the bay home for the past 8 years.

‘It’s truly been the best years of our lives. Kyle’s curtain isn’t closed just yet and we couldn’t be more happy and emotional to stay home!!! We’re forever Faithful.’

Earlier this week, she did not seem all too pleased with the 49ers’ decision to cut her husband and vented on social media. She posted a picture of their dog looking unhappy with the caption ‘Mood’.

According to the New York Post, Kristin later shared a screen sH๏τ of a FaceTime call with their close friends – George and Claire Kittle – as everyone seemed upset about the news. The picture was later deleted.

A Harvard graduate, Juszczyk began his career with the Baltimore Ravens after they picked him in the fourth round of the 2013 NFL Draft. 

The 33-year-old was one of the first players signed after 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch took over in 2017 and has been a key part of the offense since then thanks to his versatility.

In an era when few teams use fullbacks, Juszczyk has played about half the offensive snaps during his time with San Francisco and has made the Pro Bowl all eight seasons with the team and nine times overall.

He was a first-team All-Pro in 2023 and second-teamer in 2024 after fullbacks were added back as a position for All-Pro the past two years.

Juszczyk had 19 catches for 200 yards and two touchdowns last season, while also rushing for 26 yards and a touchdown.

He has 184 catches for 1,895 yards and 13 touchdowns in eight seasons with the Niners, along with 237 yards rushing and six more touchdowns on the ground.
