Juszczyk's positional classification creates a significant pay disparity: designated as a fullback at $3.75 million per year, he earns substantially less than tight ends despite performing tight end duties on game day. In 2025, he lined up in the backfield on 169 snaps, inline on 190, in the slot on 159, out wide 55 times, and even had one snap at quarterback according to PFF. Fellow 49ers tight ends Jake Tonges and Luke Farrell each make $4 million per season—more than Juszczyk—while George Kittle's deal averages $19.1 million per season. Juszczyk acknowledged the disparity directly: 'I'm a fullback when it comes to contract negotiations, which hurts, but then I'm a tight end on game day.' He is entering the last year of his current contract and his 10th season with the 49ers.
