George Kittle is making a valiant return from a torn Achilles tonight in the San Francisco 49ers' season opener against the Los Angeles Rams. It's been only eight months since he suffered the injury, a remarkably fast recovery for any player, let alone a 32-year-old tight end who plays a particularly physical style.
A seven-time Pro Bowler and two-time first-team All-Pro, Kittle has been one of the best at his position for nearly a decade. If he can successfully return to form after his Achilles injury, it'll only bolster his Hall of Fame case.
As Kittle makes his way back to the field, his wife, Claire Kittle, will be cheering him on. Here's what we know about Claire.
Who is Claire Kittle?
Claire is a former Iowa basketball player who now works as an influencer and
model. The Kittles met while freshmen at Iowa, according to People, and they were friends for eight months before they began dating. Claire and George eloped in 2019 and got married again in 2021 to celebrate with friends and family. The couple enjoys comic books and video games, plus they live in Nashville in the offseason.
There you have it.
