When at his best, George Kittle is one of the most dangerous tight ends in all of football, right up there with his counterpart in Super Bowl LVIII Travis Kelce. Kittle will need to be at or near his best to help the San Francisco 49ers win the Super Bowl over a Kansas City Chiefs team that is elite on the defensive side of the ball. Here, we look at the George Kittle player props that are up for grabs ahead of this game and make our picks across those markets.

George Kittle Prop Prediction #1: Longest Reception Over 20.5 Yards (-110)
Our first pick from the list of George Kittle player props is for him to go over his longest reception yardage total of 20.5 yards. Kittle has had a catch of at least 28 yards in four of his last five games between the regular season and playoffs. The lone exception came in Week 17 against the Washington Commanders in a game that was well decided before its conclusion.
In this game, Kittle may not have sustained periods of success against a Kansas City defense that is among the best in football. But he will do what he usually does and break a big play to help the Niners in their quest to avenge their loss to the Chiefs in the Super Bowl just a few short seasons ago.
George Kittle Prop Prediction #2: Over 45.5 Receiving Yards (-115)
Our second George Kittle prop pick will go the same direction as the first, as we will take the over on Kittle’s receiving yards total at 45.5 yards. Kittle has gone over this number in three of his last five games, but once again, one of those unders came in that blowout game against the Commanders. Kittle should be able to make one big catch and then do just enough to get over the line here.
We are also taking this over from a strategic standpoint in addition to simply projecting that he will get there. By taking the over on Kittle’s longest reception yards prop, there would not be much room to spare on the total if we were to take the under. Instead, Kittle would just need another 25 receiving yards if he were to hit the over on his longest catch prop, which we expect to happen.
