The 49ers interest in Mike Shanahan has extended to an interview. Could this actually happen?
The San Francisco 49ers rumored renewed interest in Mike Shanahan is apparently more than just idle chatter. Ian Rapoport is reporting the 49ers formally interviewed Shanahan on Tuesday. He is saying the 49ers interest has "ramped up considerably" since then. Considering Hue Jackson decided on the Cleveland Browns during that stretch, and the Philadelphia Eagles spoke with Tom Coughlin a second time, I suppose we should not be overly surprised.
There has been some speculation that the 49ers old guard would love this hiring.
