George Kittle goes as bald as a satellite-free roof for DirecTV

George Kittle, the San Francisco 49ers tight end with the ravishing locks, sports a shocking new ’do—bald on top, feathered mane on the sides—in a DirecTV campaign reminding consumers they don’t need a satellite dish to catch football games this fall. The “Nothing on Your Roof” idea, reinforced by Kittle having no hair on his roof, is the latest in a string of initiatives from agency TBWA\Chiat\Day LA to educate consumers that DirecTV doesn’t just offer satellite technology. By 2023, streaming subscription services became the No. 1 way people watch football, per Statista.
