As it ends up being clear that the easiest method everyone can lower the spread of COVID-19 is to wear a mask, NFL teams are promoting the using of masks in the hopes that the football season will be able to begin on time. The 49ers have discovered an imaginative method to do it.

The 49ers Twitter posted the message, “Be a saint. Grab a face mask” with video of George Kittles catch-and-run to set up the winning field objective in last seasons video game at New Orleans. That play ended with Saints security Marcus Williams blatantly grabbing and pulling Kittles facemask in a desperate attempt to bring him down.

When youre in public, you should be using a mask over your mouth and nose. Everyone ought to use a mask.

The message follows Saints coach Sean Payton leapt aboard the pro-mask train with a civil service announcement this week.
