MIAMI, Fla. -- John Lynch was hoping for a “pretty cool weekend."
But the 49ers general manager can still pick up the greatest consolation prize possible.
Lynch made it into the final 10 among modern-era candidates for the Pro Football Hall of Fame on Saturday but was not one of the five chosen for induction into the Class of 2020.
Former 49ers defensive tackle Bryant Young was a first-time finalist, but he was eliminated from consideration for induction this year when the remaining modern-era candidates were cut from 15 to the final 10.
