Much to Trent Taylor's dismay, the 49ers and George Kittle remain very far apart when it comes to the start tight end's new contract.
Kittle, who is set to earn $2.133 million this season, wants to be paid like a top wide receiver or offensive tackle, two positions which make significantly more than tight ends. But NFL Media's Mike Silver reported Friday that there still is a "significant disconnect" between the 49ers and Kittle.
There's a disconnect between @gkittle46 and the @49ers and if that doesn't change soon, I wonder whether he might consider an extreme measure.
