No. 3: George Kittle will break the record for receiving yards by a tight end, again.

After his magnificent 2018 season ended with him breaking the record for most receiving yards by a tight end, George Kittle fell just a bit short of getting to that mark, even taking into account his two games missed.

However, he did a decent job nonetheless with his 1,053 yards from 14 games a decent amount to follow his record 1,377 yards in 2018.

Kittle has already made clear that he views 2020 as a “revenge tour” and that he will be back with a vengeance. With his record 2018 under his belt and a 2019 year, where he was so close to a Super Bowl victory succeeding it, 2020 is setting up the be the year of Kittle.

To go with the prediction of receptions in the triple figures, the record he set in 2018 will also fall to himself as well.
