Kittle signed a five-year, $75 million contract with the 49ers in 2020, and his deal called for him to make $13.4 million in base salary this season and count $21.956 million against the cap.
Kittle, 30, has caught 460 passes for 6,274 yards and 37 touchdowns since the 49ers drafted him in the fifth round in 2017. He is a five-time Pro Bowler and twice has made All-Pro.
