Sydney Warner, wife of San Francisco 49ers linebacker Fred Warner, has fans buzzing after a series of cryptic Instagram posts that coincided with the release of Kyle Juszczyk from the team.
Sydney’s ‘Celebratory’ Posts Raise Eyebrows
On Monday, March 10, the same day Juszczyk, 33, was released by the 49ers, Sydney, 29, took to Instagram Stories to share what appeared to be a celebratory mood—a timing that didn’t go unnoticed.
Her first post read, “The happiest of Mondays,” placed over a photo of a cup of coffee, accompanied by a black heart emoji.
Shortly after, she uploaded another post with an even more cryptic caption:
“And the day just keeps getting better… celebratory Diet Coke,” she wrote over an image of a soda being poured into a wine glass, setting the moment to the tune of Rare Earth’s “I Just Want to Celebrate.”
To top it off, she later posted yet another Instagram Story:
“A glorious evening,” she wrote, featuring a photo of a TV screen and a bag of pretzels resting on her couch.
While Sydney never explicitly mentioned Juszczyk or his release, fans quickly began speculating that her posts were more than just a coincidence.

Juszczyk’s Release Shakes Up the 49ers’ Locker Room
The 49ers’ decision to part ways with Juszczyk after eight seasons was a surprising move. The veteran fullback was one of the first free-agent signings under head coach Kyle Shanahan in 2017 and became a key locker-room presence, earning Pro Bowl selections in each of his eight seasons in San Francisco.
His departure clearly hit some members of the 49ers WAG community hard, particularly Kristin Juszczyk, Kyle’s wife.
Shortly after the news broke, Kristin posted her own Instagram Story, featuring a photo of their dog looking sad, captioned simply:
“Mood.”
Another notable reaction came from Claire Kittle, wife of George Kittle, who expressed her disappointment over the release.
“Just rip out our hearts why don’t you,” Claire wrote on March 10, sharing a throwback photo of herself, her husband, Kyle, and Kristin together. She followed it up with a tribute to Juszczyk’s career accomplishments:
“8 years a Niner. 12-year vet. 9 consecutive Pro Bowls. 2x All-Pro. 2024 49ers Captain.”
Does Sydney Warner Have a History with Kristin Juszczyk?
The timing and tone of Sydney’s posts led many to wonder if underlying tension exists between her and Kristin Juszczyk.
While neither woman has publicly addressed any rumored drama, Sydney’s pointed posts—particularly calling her day “the happiest” and “celebratory”—seemed strangely aligned with Juszczyk’s release.
Sydney Warner on Finding Her Place in the 49ers WAG Community
Though she hasn’t commented on any potential rift with Kristin Juszczyk, Sydney has previously spoken about her adjustment to life as an NFL wife.
In a December 2024 interview with Us Weekly, Sydney opened up about finding her place in the 49ers WAG circle after marrying Fred Warner in 2022.
“You find your footing,” she said. “I think it took me a while to find my niche and where I felt comfortable being a wife—now a mother—a girlfriend at the time. Now, I’m Fred’s partner, and we’re a duo. That’s an amazing thing to say.”
She also emphasized how she and Fred Warner function as a team, adding:
“As a team, we work really well together. It’s just nice being able to be a teammate with him and me finding my footing, as well. I think it’s just a timing thing. And it’s all worked out.”
The couple welcomed their first child, a son named Beau Anthony, in March 2024.
What’s Next?
With Kyle Juszczyk officially off the 49ers’ roster, his next move in the NFL remains uncertain. Meanwhile, fans will continue to watch for any further cryptic posts or potential drama among the 49ers’ wives and girlfriends.
As of now, Sydney Warner has not responded to speculation regarding her posts, and Kristin Juszczyk has kept things classy, focusing on her husband’s next chapter. But in the ever-watching world of NFL WAGs, fans will be keeping a close eye on their next moves.
