Gutiérrez was assigned to the San Francisco 49ers roster on May 4, 2021, as a part of the NFL's International Player Pathway Program (IPPP). He was waived by the 49ers on August 31, 2021, when the team announced its final 53-man roster for the 2021 season. He was resigned to the practice squad, due to an IPPP exemption allowing the 49ers to have an extra practice squad member, however, he was ineligible to be activated to the main roster.

He played in his first NFL game on August 20, 2022, during week 2 of the 2022 preseason in a 17–7 victory against the Minnesota Vikings. Head coach Kyle Shanahan awarded Gutiérrez the game ball to celebrate his NFL debut. He was waived on August 30, 2022, and signed to the practice squad the next day. He signed a reserve/future contract on January 31, 2023.

The San Francisco 49ers were able to sign Gutiérrez as an extra practice squad member for a third and final year during the 2023 season. Gutiérrez stated that his goal was to make the final roster for the 2023 season, stating "with these two years of learning, I'm hoping I can land a spot in the 53". He was waived on August 29, 2023 and re-signed to the practice squad the following day.
