George Kittle’s Mike Evans admiration spills onto social media with 6-word post

George Kittle should work in a donut shop. Because he sure knows how to glaze.

Mike Evans helped the San Francisco 49ers survive the Seattle Seahawks, 32-29, at Lumen Field on Sunday and remain unbeaten in five games. He was on point in their final drives, repeatedly connecting with Brock Purdy to move the ball, leading to the game-winning 43-yard field goal by Eddy Pineiro.

The 33-year-old Evans had seven receptions for 113 yards and one touchdown, and Kittle did not need any hyperbole to express his admiration for the veteran pass-catcher.

"Mike Evans is really good at football," said the 33-year-old Kittle on X.

An astute observation, if ever there was one. Who needs advanced analytics, right?

"Mike Evans is a dream come true," said @nineralex.

"I think George is on to something here 😆🤩," added @tonyuncleAL19.

"Like really, really good," wrote @Killahkali7o7.

"Scientists just identified his catch radius as a ring of Saturn," posted @Sublimator2000.

"He picked up the team on his back 😊👍🏽," commented @CitusViratus.

Kittle, for his part, had five receptions for 24 yards.

Purdy went 19-of-29 for 189 yards and two touchdowns. He also heaped praise on Evans, calling the six-time Pro Bowler a "game-changer" and a "true X receiver," as reported by the Associated Press' Josh Dubow.

Evans, who is dealing with a rib injury , has shown that the 49ers made the right decision in prying him away from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with a three-year, $42.4 million contract in the offseason.

The 49ers have a 5-o start for the second time in four years. In 2023, they went all the way to the Super Bowl.
