A Day After Season-Ending Injury, George Kittle Enjoys Patron on the Sidelines
The San Francisco 49ers' season took a devastating turn when star tight end George Kittle suffered a torn Achilles tendon in their playoff loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. But what happened next was anything but typical. According to Dianna Russini, an NFL insider for The Athletic, as Kittle was carted off the field, an employee of the Niners went into his locker room with what appeared to be Patron tequila. The San Francisco 49ers owner happily obliged, providing Kittle with a bottle from their private suite.
Hours after the game, when the team had already walked out of Lincoln Financial Field, that bottle was empty. Despite having just suffered a season-ending injury, it seems Kittle needed a little liquid courage to take on the next challenge. The Niners will attempt to move forward without their star tight end in the playoffs, facing off against the Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles Rams.
In typical San Francisco fashion, even in the face of adversity, they're taking the fight head-on - albeit with a little extra 'oomph' courtesy of Patron tequila.

but hey, gotta give props to the 49ers for keepin it real, even in the tough times... and Patron? yeah, who needs ice for those tears when u can just drink away the pain 
. and let's be real, it's not like he's gonna need his 49ers career back anytime soon 
. but still, love how the team is keeping spirits high and taking on the playoffs with a smile 
. hopefully they can pull off a comeback without kittle... or maybe just get him to drink more Patron 
this is crazy lol! Who does that? Providing someone with Patron after they just tore their achilles tendon 
Interesting how the team handled it tho, trying to lift each other up despite the tough situation.
. guess the niners are trying 2 give kittle some 'liquid courage' 4 the playoffs 
. love how they're still taking it head-on w/ that extra 'oomph' 
. Still, gotta respect Kittle's attitude and the team's willingness to keep it weird... at least for now 
.
and now his team is supporting him like this? it's actually kinda awesome 
having that private suite with all that tequila, but still 49ers are being super cool about it... even if he did need some liquid courage lol. on the bright side, I guess they can take comfort in knowing their teammates got his back 
and now it's time for them to come together as a team to crush those Seahawks & Rams 
...it's crazy how he just got smashed on patron after his injury 
...the 49ers are gonna need some serious magic with kittle out 
...and omg can u even imagine the memes of him sipping on patron while they're losing in playoffs
