In a move that surprised absolutely no one, the 49ers have brought back fullback Kyle Juszczyk on a two-year, $8 million deal, just days after releasing him to manage their salary cap. Did anyone really think Juice was gone for good? Yeah, not a chance.

Juszczyk has been a cornerstone of Kyle Shanahan’s offense since 2017, doing everything from bulldozing defenders to catching clutch passes. His versatility and leadership make him invaluable, even in an NFL that barely acknowledges the existence of fullbacks.

But let’s be honest, this isn’t just about Kyle, it’s also about keeping the Juszczyk power couple in the Bay. His wife, Kristin Juszczyk, has become a fan favorite in her own right, designing custom game-day fits that have taken the NFL fashion scene by storm. So yes, the Niners keep their Swiss Army knife fullback, and we all get another season of elite Kristin Juszczyk drip. Everybody wins!

Cutting him was purely a numbers game, a strategic move to free up cap space before immediately bringing him back. Now, with the contract shenanigans out of the way, Juszczyk can continue doing what he does best, delivering crushing blocks, making sneaky plays, and reminding the league why the 49ers still believe in a position most teams have abandoned.

So, to anyone who panicked for even a second, relax. Juice is loose in the Bay once again.
