San Francisco 49ers stars George Kittle and Kyle Jusczcyk jumped into the stands to celebrate the touchdowns scored with their wives as they led their team to a 36-24 victory over the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday night.
Kittle had just scored his second touchdown of the game but appeared to be done celebrating before teammate Jusczcyk pulled him back and pointed to nearby seats.
Kittle immediately noticed his wife Claire, who was sitting next to Jusczcyk’s partner Kristin. The teammates ran over together and jumped up to hug their wives, who were laughing hysterically.
Moments after Kittle scored, Jusczcyk jumped into action and celebrated his touchdown by jumping over to Kristin and giving her his touchdown ball.
“What a nice guy, a great friend,” Kittle joked about Jusczcyk on Amazon Prime, reminding him of where his wife was sitting. ‘Convenient that our wives were together. And then he did it, even better.”

Claire shared a video of the moment, filmed by a local friend, on Instagram with the caption: ‘TOUCHDOWN GEORGE!! Package deal.’
Jusczcyk shared a video of the moment on her Instagram Story with the caption: “Best night ever.”
Thursday night’s win moves the 49ers to 3-3 on the season, tied with the Seahawks at the top of the NFC West.
Quarterback Brock Purdy threw 255 yards for three touchdowns, with Deebo Samuel also scoring a TD for his team on Purdy’s 76-yard touchdown pass.
There were still some nerve-wracking moments for San Francisco. The 49ers opened a 20-point lead early in the second half, but the Seahawks twice brought the game within one score.
But one more piece of good news for the Niners: their star running back Christian McCaffrey is expected to return to the team in November.
McCaffrey has missed every game for his team so far this season due to tendinitis in both of his Achilles tendons.
They will next face the Kansas City Chiefs on October 20 in a rematch of last season’s Super Bowl in California. They will then take on the Dallas Cowboys on October 27, followed by a bye week.
Last season, Kristin Jusczcyk designed Chiefs-themed jackets for Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes to wear during a playoff game against the Miami Dolphins.
They had the jersey numbers of their partners, Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce, embroidered on them.
