Former 49ers linebacker NaVorro Bowman might not leave the Bay Area for his next job.
There’s strong mutual interest between Bowman and the Raiders, the NFL Network reported Sunday. Bowman is expected to visit the team’s Alameda headquarters in “the coming days,” according to the report.
Asked about the possibility of Bowman visiting Monday, head coach Jack Del Rio said after Sunday’s 17-16 loss to the Chargers, “I’m fresh off this game. Reggie (McKenzie) is in charge of that part. We’ll talk about it.”
The Raiders were not especially strong at linebacker to start the season, and now they’re dealing with injuries.
