San Francisco 49ers star Kyle Juszczyk has signed a new five-year contract with the NFL franchise.

Juszczyk – a five-time Pro Bowler – will reportedly earn $27million after agreeing a fresh deal in San Francisco.

The 29-year-old, who has established himself as one of the league's best fullbacks, was a free agent but will continue playing for the 49ers.

Juszczyk wrote via Instagram on Sunday: "So incredibly thankful to be a part of this organisation for five more years!

"Thank you Faithful for the continuous support! Looking forward to showing that the juice is always worth the squeeze."

Juszczyk spent his first four seasons with the Baltimore Ravens after being drafted in the fourth round in 2013.

He left the Ravens for the 49ers in 2017, signing a four-year contract worth $21m.

Since moving to San Francisco, Juszczyk has 102 receptions for 1,080 yards and seven touchdowns – in the 2020 season he managed 19 receptions, 202 yards and two touchdowns.

In his career, Juszczyk has tallied 199 receptions for 1,849 yards and 12 TDs.
