49ers linebacker Fred Warner, tight end George Kittle and fullback Kyle Juszczyk were each named to the Associated Press 2024 NFL All-Pro team.
Warner was a first-team All-Pro selection defensively, while Kittle and Juszczyk were second-team All-Pro choices offensively.
Playing in all 17 games this season, Warner racked up a team-leading 131 tackles. The BYU alum also tallied seven passes defensed, five tackles for loss, four forced fumbles, two interceptions and one sack.
It marks the third season consecutively that Warner has garnered first-team All-Pro honors. The 6-foot-3, 230 pound linebacker notched 115-plus tackles for a seventh consecutive season. In the process, Warner became one of just two players since 2000 to accomplish this feat in their first seven seasons.
Kittle played in 15 games this season, catching 78 passes for 1,106 yards with eight touchdowns. The Iowa alum became one of just five NFL tight ends all-time to have registered four 1,000-yard receiving seasons in their career.
Kittle joined the ranks of Travis Kelce (7), Tony Gonzalez (4), Rob Gronkowski (4) and Jason Witten (4) in that regard.
Among NFL tight ends, Kittle’s 2024 numbers ranked fifth in receptions, third in receiving yards and tops in yards per reception. The 6-foot-4, 250 pound tight end’s four 100-yard receiving games were the most of any tight end in the league. Kittle’s eight touchdowns were also the most of an NFC tight end.
Juszczyk earned his second career All-Pro nod. The Harvard product caught 19 passes for 200 yards and a pair of receiving scores and also carried five times for 26 yards with one rushing touchdown.
