George Kittle gets The Rock's attention again.
San Francisco 49ers tight end and wrestling fan George Kittle was feeling himself and his team following their 24-20 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. Kittle finished with six catches for 57 yards as the Niners improved to 3-0. After the win, Kittle busted out his Rock impression in the locker room.

Kittle attended WWE Tables, Ladders, and Chairs in December 2018, quickly leaving the 49ers post-game press conference to catch the event. You can view his interview backstage with WWE in the video above.
