49ers WAGs have a perfect celebration after ‘craving’ for a touchdown

Claire Kittle and Kristin Juszczyk got their wish.

49ers tight end George Kittle and fullback Kyle Juszczyk ran to their wives for the ultimate touchdown celebration on Thursday after Kittle brought it home to give San Francisco a 12-point lead with less than seven minutes to play in the fourth quarter against the Seahawks.

Juszczyk also later celebrated with his wife after scoring a late touchdown in the 49ers’ 36-24 win.

Kristin said in a post on her Instagram Story before the game that she and Claire, who sat in the front row behind the goal post, were hoping for a touchdown celebration with their husbands.

“Claire and I would like Kyle or George to score so they can jump to us,” Kristin, a fashion designer, said in her video. “Come on, we’re here!”

When Kittle scored his second touchdown of the night to give the 49ers a 29-17 lead, Juszczyk seemed to signal to their wives, who cheered and called them to their seats.

Earlier, 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy found Kittle for a 10-yard touchdown early in the second half, giving them a 23-3 lead.

It was Kittle’s fourth straight game with a touchdown reception.

“He’s a baller,” Purdy said of Kittle. “Obviously when you get the ball in his hands he can do what he can do. He can break tackles. Just explosive for a tight end.”

Kittle finished with five receptions for 58 yards and two scores.

Juszczyk gave Kristin the football after he scored the game’s final touchdown and 49ers wideout Deebo Samuel joined in the celebration.

The 49ers’ critical division victory (3-3) over Seattle lifted them atop the NFC heading west.
