NFL fullback Kyle Juszczyk will return to the San Francisco 49ers after all — and no one is more excited than his wife, Kristin Juszczyk.
“This past week has really made Kyle and I reflect on our past 8 years in the Bay. We grew up here. We turned friends into family here,” Kristin, 30, wrote via Instagram on Saturday, March 15. “We won championships here and we lost championships here. We feel so incredibly blessed to have called the bay home for the past 8 years. It’s truly been the best years of our lives.”
She added, “Kyle’s curtain isn’t closed just yet and we couldn’t be more happy and emotional to stay home!!! ❤️ We’re forever Faithful.”
Kristin, a fashion designer best known for repurposing NFL game day gear, also updated a video montage of the couple’s 49ers memories. Also sharing the clip to her Instagram Stories, she wrote, “Just like that we’re back home!!!”
News broke earlier on Saturday that the 49ers reached an agreement to sign Kyle, 33, back on the team’s roster. He was released earlier this month during the free agency period.
Kyle also celebrated his 49ers return on social media, adding a sticker of Leonardo DiCaprio saying, “I’m Not Leaving” to a photo of himself in his Niners uniform.
Teammate Christian McCaffrey, for his part, captioned an Instagram Story pic of the duo, writing “Back 🤝,” while their fellow Niners star George Kittle wrote “Boys are back” on his own page.

Kyle signed with the 49ers in 2017 after a trade from the Baltimore Ravens, where he previously played. His stint with the Ravens also overlapped with the origins of his romance with Kristin, a Maryland native herself. Kyle and Kristin tied the knot in July 2019 two years after moving cross-country to California.
Throughout Kyle’s NFL tenure, Kristin made headlines of her own with her ability to transform NFL jerseys into chic game day outfits. Her pieces went viral in January 2024 when Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes rocked matching custom Kansas City Chiefs puffer jackets out of pinnies for their respective partners, Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes.

“I was so prepared for that moment,” Kristin exclusively told Us Weekly in August 2024. “I’ve been at this for years now and it’s all I’ve ever wanted. When there was finally a spotlight on it, I was so ready.”
She added, “I love pushing my skill set and making things. I don’t want to be known as ‘the puffy jacket girl.’ As much as it was incredible, all the spotlight I got, I love doing a ton of other designs, as well.”
Kyle has been Kristin’s top supporter while her fashion game has reached new heights. (She launched her Off Season brand with businesswoman Emma Grede earlier in 2025.)
“I feel like we’re a very 50/50 couple,” Kristin shared with Us. “When Kyle needs me to step up, I step up. And vice versa. Last season when everything kind of got crazy and there was a lot of attention surrounding [my designs], I didn’t have as much time to do things as I normally did. Kyle was super understanding.”
