At 8:50 a.m. EDT on Saturday, the NFL announced that 49ers running back Kyle Juszczyk would be heading back to San Francisco on a two-year deal, crediting NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport with breaking the news.

Indeed, it is a big day for Juszczyk, one of the last of the dying breed of top-flight fullbacks in the NFL. Statistically, Juszczyk is not a huge contributor--he had five carries for 26 yards last season--but he is a good locker-room presence who is known to be among the league's best blocking backs.

The 49ers cut Juszczyk on Tuesday, and he had been considering signing a contract in Pittsburgh. The Steelers offered more money, but Juszczyk opted to go back to his old team.

Of course, even before the news was spread around the league, Juszczyk's wife, Kristin Juszczyk reported on Instagram that the reunion was happening.

"This past week has really made Kyle and I reflect on our past 8 years in the Bay," she wrote. "We grew up here. We turned friends into family here. We won championships here and we lost championships here. We feel so incredibly blessed to have called the bay home for the past 8 years.

"It’s truly been the best years of our lives. Kyle’s curtain isn’t closed just yet and we couldn’t be more happy and emotional to stay home!!! ❤️ We’re forever Faithful."

While his wife chose to relay the news with thoughtfulness and emotion, Kyle Juszczyk opted for the picture-worth-1,000-words approach. He posted a GIF of Leonardo DiCaprio from The Wolf of Wall Street.
