Haliburton previously went face-to-face with New York Knicks star Jalen Brunson on an episode of “Friday Night SmackDown.”

For now, it doesn’t appear as though either will enter a WWE ring anytime soon.

Kittle suffered a torn Achilles in January, ending his 2026 season with the San Francisco 49ers on a sour note.
