George Kittle might have to put his money where his mouth -- or in this case, shirt -- is.

The NFL is considering a fine for the 49ers tight end after he flashed a T-shirt that said "F--k Dallas" in the fourth quarter of the 49ers' 42-10 win over the Cowboys on Sunday at Levi's Stadium, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Wednesday -- a sum that could amount to nearly $11,000.

The shirt, an homage to former 49ers linebacker Gary Plummer, has caused plenty of drama since the blowout game, with Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons calling Kittle out for making things "personal" and San Francisco wide receiver Deebo Samuel firing back with a witty retort.

On Tuesday, Kittle told KNBR's "Murph and Mac" show he has no regrets.

"At the end of the day, it's Niners vs. Cowboys," Kittle said. "It's historic. It's fun to channel that energy once in a while, that's all I was doing. I'd do it again. I'm a mild internet troll."

Only time will tell if Kittle's wallet ends up feeling differently.
