Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned for the 49ers, who stumbled after last year's Super Bowl appearance. San Francisco missed the playoffs for the first time since 2020, finishing with a disappointing 6-11 record and landing in last place in the NFC West standings.
Kristin, however, has kept herself busy. Her new NFL clothing line, the Off Season Apparel Collection, recently launched and features custom jackets and outerwear inspired by her popular designs in recent years.

While Kristin is excited to share her collection with fans and is closely monitoring feedback, she admits the 49ers' absence from the playoffs has put a damper on her mood. She had big plans for her line during the postseason.
"Truly would have never thought I would be sitting on the couch during the playoffs watching everyone wear my designs," Juszczyk wrote on social media (h/t Nicholas McGee of A to Z Sports). "Life is crazy man. I'm obsessed with all of you and I'm constantly looking at my DMs to see all your tags!!! But also a tad salty bc I had so many playoff ideas."
Looking ahead, the 49ers hope the 2024 season will prove to be an anomaly rather than a sign that their Super Bowl window has closed.
Kyle Juszczyk's future with the team remains uncertain. While the fullback is under contract through 2025, his $6.5 million salary cap hit could complicate things. The 49ers can opt out of the final year of his deal. The team may face some tough financial decisions with quarterback Brock Purdy set to earn the largest contract in franchise history.
"There hasn't been any discussion yet, but I am aware of the kind of situation that we have," Kyle admitted recently. "There's a lot up in the air and who's going to be here, who's not, some contracts that need to be figured out. So, I'm aware of that. I just hope it doesn't affect me."
