Two weeks into their offseason, the San Francisco 49ers have yet to fill their defensive coordinator vacancy. They have been relatively quiet about interviewing candidates for the position.
Thus far, there have only been two interviews: Former New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh and Detroit Lions assistant Deshea Townsend. But, apart from that, there have been crickets on the defensive coordinator end, and things took a turn on Wednesday.
Saleh, who is perceived to be the favorite for the job now, has been conducting head coaching interviews with a few organizations this season as he looks to get back on his feet after being fired from New York this offseason.
