Claire Kittle, wife of San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle, has called for the NFL to implement two rule changes aimed at improving player safety, emphasizing the benefits of natural grass playing surfaces.
In a recent statement, Kittle expressed her belief that "grass everywhere would be nice," highlighting concerns over injury rates on artificial turf. She urged the league to mandate grass fields across all stadiums and to adjust rules to further protect players.
The advocacy comes amid ongoing debate about the impact of playing surfaces on player health, with several NFL players and coaches voicing support for a return to natural grass.
