The San Francisco 49ers are welcoming back nine-time Pro Bowl fullback Kyle Juszczyk with a two-year, $8 million contract, multiple media outlets reported Saturday morning.
Per ESPN, Juszczyk accepted less than what the Pittsburgh Steelers were offering to return to San Francisco.
The 49ers released Juszczyk on Tuesday in a move that saved the club more than $2.9 million toward this year’s salary cap. Juszczyk was set to make a $4.1 million base salary in 2025 with a $6.5 million cap figure in the final season of a five-year contract.
