George Kittle has dealt with a number of injuries this season.

A new injury was revealed on Monday when the San Francisco 49ers tight end said he's been playing the past two seasons with a torn labrum in his right shoulder.

"So I dislocated my shoulder last year," Kittle said, "and my labrum is completely torn. So I don't get surgery on it... [The protective sleeve] basically helps me, so it doesn't hurt all the time."

Kittle has 173 receptions for 2,430 yards and 10 scores since the start of the 2018 season.

Tevin Coleman Has Dislocated Right Shoulder

Jan 21, 2020 9:09 AM

Tevin Coleman suffered a dislocated shoulder during Sunday's NFC Championship Game.

However, the injury shouldn't keep the San Francisco 49ers running back out of Super Bowl LIV against the Kansas City Chiefs on February 2.

"We have got to wait until we get the stuff back, so I don't want to speculate too much, but usually a week to rest it and usually gets back in," Kyle Shanahan said. "I expect him to have a chance to play. Can't hold me to that. We'll find out more after the imaging, but expect him to have a good chance to play."

Coleman rushed for 21 yards on six carries before the injury.
