George Kittle is feeling confident about about the future of the San Francisco 49ers with Brock Purdy as the starting quarterback.

Kittle spoke about Purdy's work ethic and growth during the offseason and expressed that he believes that Purdy is "the guy" for the 49ers.

"He looks like the guy, which is really nice," 49ers tight end George Kittle told Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area. "He's in the building every day. He's the same guy every single day. He's consistent. He's incredibly competitive. It's fun seeing him yell at guys when they don't hit the route depth, if they have the wrong landmark.
