49ers' Kyle Juszczyk: Remaining in Bay Area
Jusczyk and the 49ers have agreed on a two-year, $8 million contract, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
San Francisco released Jusczyk on Monday, but the two sides came together to agree upon a quick reunion. The nine-time Pro Bowler will earn less money than last season, but the deal will allow him to remain with one of the few remaining NFL squads that still extensively uses a fullback. Though his value extends beyond statistical contributions, Jusczyk was a useful contributor on offense in 2024, posting 19 catches on 31 targets for 200 yards and two touchdowns while rushing five times for 26 yards and another TD.

Kyle Juszczyk: Released by San Francisco
The 49ers released Juszczyk on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Juszczyk has made nine consecutive Pro Bowls as a fullback and is coming off a second-team All-Pro selection in 2024, a season in which he caught 19 passes for 200 yards and two touchdowns. He also rushed five times for 26 yards and a third score. Juszcyzk will turn 34 years old in April and wants to continue his playing career. Releasing Juszczyk saves the Niners more than $2.9 million against the cap but leaves behind $3.57 million in dead money.

49ers' Kyle Juszczyk: Scores thrice in 2024
Juszczyk produced 26 rushing yards and a touchdown on five carries to go along with 19 receptions for 200 yards and a pair of scores while starting all 17 games for San Francisco this season.
Juszczyk turned in another strong season from the near-extinct fullback position, providing the 49ers with elite blocking in addition to his services as an auxiliary receiving option. The 33-year-old will enter the second year of his restructured contract in 2025, presumably serving in a similar role, which provides great real-life value to his club despite holding little fantasy utility.

Juszczyk (illness) is absent from the 49ers' injury report ahead of Monday's matchup with the Lions.

49ers' Kyle Juszczyk: Dealing with illness
Juszczyk (illness) didn't practice Friday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
The veteran fullback popped up on San Francisco's injury report Friday as a non-participant in practice due to an illness. It's unclear if the ailment is severe enough to impact his availability for Monday night's matchup against the Lions. Juszczyk typically sees limited touches on offense, though he could get a few more than usual in Week 17 with Christian McCaffrey (knee), Jordan Mason (ankle) and Elijah Mitchell (hamstring) all sidelined.

49ers' Kyle Juszczyk: No touches in Week 15
Juszczyk played 27 of the 49ers' 54 snaps on offense and went without a carry or target in Thursday's 12-6 loss to the Rams.
Though he's seen a slight uptick in snaps over the past two games with both Christian McCaffrey (knee) and Jordan Mason (ankle) out for the season, Juszczyk hasn't benefited from a usage standpoint. The veteran fullback has managed just one touch (a three-yard reception) in those two games while rookie Isaac Guerendo has dominated the opportunities out of the backfield. For the season, Juszczyk has carried four times for 20 yards and a touchdown to go with 15 receptions for 122 yards on 23 targets over 14 games.

49ers' Kyle Juszczyk: No carries, targets in Week 10
Juszczyk went without a carry or target while playing 25 of the 49ers' 64 offensive snaps in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Buccaneers.
With tailback Christian McCaffrey (Achilles) making his season debut in Week 10, the 49ers didn't waste any touches on Juszczyk, who had carried the ball three times for 21 yards and a touchdown to go with four receptions for 16 yards on eight targets across the previous three contests. While Juszczyk should continue to have a regular role on offense every week, he'll be deployed primarily as a blocker and only occasionally as a route runner whenever he's on the field.
