George Kittle's secret golf weapon: Why 49ers star still uses iconic Nike driver from 2014
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The final day of this year's Tight End University involved a different sport than football, one that co-founders Travis Kelce, George Kittle and Greg Olsen thought would be the perfect way to build more camaraderie. "We did see how Nashville summers are pretty hot, didn't want to put guys in the fields two days in a row. So, you know what, what's a way to get everybody around? Golf. Everybody loves golf," Kittle told Fox News Digital before playing at Hermitage Golf Course in Old Hickory, just outside of Nashville. It was still a scorcher under the Tennessee sun, but Kittle was ready to go out with his group, which included Kelce, Olsen and his coach, Jon Embree. And they may have needed some ear plugs when it was Kittle's turn to tee up. That's because Kittle has a certain loyalty to his driver, one with an ear-piercing noise that resembles an aluminum baseball bat rather than today's usual sound coming off the face of a "big stick." The Nike SasQuatch Sumo2, known more commonly as simply the "Sasquatch," is no longer produced. Its square face and body, mixed with it's black-and-yellow finish, makes it truly one-of-a-kind – much like the man who still wields it today. Modern golf technology has created better drivers since, but Kittle hasn't wavered from using it since 2014. He explained why. "I was a really, really bad golfer – not saying that I'm good now – but I was really bad in college. I didn't have nice clubs," Kittle explained when asked why he won't stray away from this particularly old driver for some newer technology. "A guy that I played with, a [Iowa Hawkeyes] defensive lineman named Brant Gressel, he had all these nice clubs. He was like an 80s golfer in college. He had like three bad drives in a row, and he just whips it into the woods, the Sasquatch. "I was like, 'Hey, can I have that?' He said, 'If you can get it, you can have it.' Walked into the woods, grabbed it, and it's been my driver since 2014. I keep it straight, it makes a great noise, and it's great for conversation because people are obsessed with it. It works for me and that's all that really matters." Kittle called the loud ping, a sound that would make you jump three holes away, let alone at a driving range, "cleansing" to him. And if you think otherwise, Kittle doesn't want to hear it. "It reminds me of playing tee ball in like sixth grade," he said. "Is there anything better? Just going out there with the boys just hitting the ball around? I love it. And if you don't like it, it's heresy and it will be punished." Now, because the club is no longer made, Kittle didn't want to take any chances at having to buy a modern driver and figure out what worked for his swing ever again. He took matters into his own hands, and thanks to some research, he doesn't have to worry about that. "In case I ever broke it, I found like six of them on eBay and I bought all of them," he said, smiling. It's much like wearing that favorite part of cleats or gloves in football: if it works, why switch things up? For Kittle, golf is more about the vibes than the results on the scorecard. So, while his competitive juices are always flowing on the football field, this golf trip at TEU was all about showing his peers a great time before they went back home to prepare for the grind that is NFL training camp. "Overall, just a fun time to get out there, have a couple Bud Lights, enjoy yourself and really thankful for Hermitage for letting us out here today," Kittle said.

Panthers legend believes Bryce Young showed 'true colors' after benching, making him excited for 2025 season
Print Close By Scott Thompson Published June 25, 2025 The Carolina Panthers were hoping Bryce Young would take that next step in his sophomore season, but it did not start the way he had hoped in 2024. Much like his rookie campaign in 2023, Young was struggling to get anything going on offense, and the Panthers looked like they were headed for yet another failed year. Head coach Dave Canales made the call to bench Young after just two weeks in favor of the veteran Andy Dalton, but Young had two choices: either let this become reality or continue to work. CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON He chose the latter, and it paid off despite the Panthers finishing just 5-12 last season. Young's second-half surge has one Panthers legend excited for this season with him under center once again. "It was just great for the entire organization for Bryce to take that leap after some early adversity," Greg Olsen told Fox News Digital while at the fifth year of Tight End University, which he co-founded alongside Travis Kelce and George Kittle. "For him to respond, it says a lot about him." As Olsen reminds every football fan, "if you don't have the quarterback position right, everything else is really challenging." 49ERS' GEORGE KITTLE CATCHES PASSES AT TIGHT END UNIVERSITY AFTER HISTORIC CONTRACT EXTENSION The Panthers chose Young number one overall out of Alabama after his Heisman-winning season, but it has not at all been the start he hoped for in the NFL. Still, the young signal caller never got discouraged, continued to work, publicly leaned on his faith, and the results showed in 2024. Young was eventually given his starting role back in Week 8, and he would not have it relinquished again for the remainder of the year. During those starts, while the Panthers went 3-6, Young threw for 1,853 yards with 12 touchdowns to six interceptions and a 60.4% completion rate. If his averages were extrapolated over a 17-game season, he would have thrown for 3,500 yards, 23 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. Over his final three games, two of which resulted in wins, Young threw for a total of 612 yards (204.0 per game average) with seven touchdowns to no interceptions. "I think Bryce really showed his true colors last year and that was really impressive," Olsen continued. "I think for the Panthers going into this year, hopefully that continues to improve and they continue to build the roster around him." The Panthers did build around him, drafting Arizona's Tetairoa McMillan in the first round to add a hopeful top receiver of the future to go along with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette. Carolina is also taking a flyer that Hunter Renfrow can return to his pesky self on the field, as someone who showcased crisp route-running ability and sure hands that made him a trusty target for the Las Vegas Raiders. CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP Year 3 in the NFL, especially for first-round picks, is expected to be that leap year, where the player finds his rhythm and plays more consistently. Olsen is hopeful Young can do that in 2025, but he will have to prove he is picking up right where he left off come September.
