Haliburton previously came face to face with New York Knicks star Jalen Brunson on an episode of “Friday Night SmackDown.”
For now, it doesn’t look like either of them will be entering the WWE ring anytime soon.
Kittle suffered a torn Achilles tendon in January, ending his 2026 season with the San Francisco 49ers on a sour note.
