Sunday marked the celebration of National Tight Ends Day around the NFL. During the early slate of Week 8, tight ends from across the league got on the board in celebration of National Tight Ends Days.
Travis Kelce, Tucker Kraft, David Njoku, Cade Otton, Kyle Pitts, Dalton Kincaid, Sam LaPorta, Brock Wright, Adam Trautman, Nate Adkins, Tyler Conklin, Mark Andrews and Evan Engram all found the end zone on Sunday.
In the finale of National Tight Ends day, George Kittle and the San Francisco 49ers took the stage against the Dallas Cowboys for Sunday Night Football.
In the second half, Kittle got on the board to celebrate National Tight Ends day. Kittle caught a two-yard pass from Brock Purdy to officially get on the board with a touchdown. While flags were initially thrown for offensive pass interference on a pick from Chris Conley to get Kittle open, the referees picked up the flags and waived off the penalty to lock in the score.
