WEB 49ers Announce 2021 Team Captains
Returning Captains
Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, tight end George Kittle, and linebacker Fred Warner will all return as captains for the 2021 season.
New Additions
Joining the leadership group this year are wide receiver Deebo Samuel, defensive end Nick Bosa, and safety Jaquiski Tartt.
Year of Experience
The 49ers have a wealth of experience among their captains, with Garoppolo entering his fifth season as a starter, Kittle in his sixth, and Warner in his fourth.
Shanahan's Thoughts
"I'm excited about the leadership we have on this team," said head coach Kyle Shanahan. "These guys are all proven leaders on and off the field, and I know they'll help us get to where we want to go this season."
Season Goals
The 49ers are looking to bounce back from a disappointing 6-10 season in 2020. With a healthy Garoppolo and a talented roster, they believe they have what it takes to compete for a Super Bowl.
