SCOREBOARD

Tight end George Kittle said the “awful” analysis was “Deebo’s take on himself” and not necessarily a feeling that was shared in the locker room.

“I love Deebo. He does a ton for us. I know there are plays he wishes he had back. We all do,” Kittle said. “When Deebo is very motivated, he’s a fantastic football player. I won’t say he wasn’t motivated last year, but I definitely think he has a little more fire in him this year.

“If Deebo’s trying to be better, that’ good or the Niners.”

Bosa, who is due his own mega-deal before training camp, said self-criticism is vital to staying at the top.

“Whenever you’re at the top of your profession, if you’re not looking to get better, you’re not going to be the best for very long,” Bosa said. “It’s good to look back and appreciate and have gratitude for what you’ve accomplished, but there’s a balance between being complacent and giving yourself credit . . . I try to give myself credit but I don’t want to take away from that competitive drive because that’s why I’m here.”
