Miller's roster spot tenuous with Kelly in charge

Bruce Miller plays a position that simply does not exist on a Chip Kelly depth chart.

But that does not necessarily mean the 49ers’ fullback for the past five seasons will be looking for a new job in 2016. Kelly said last week he is constantly adapting his offense and will encourage new ideas from his coaching staff.

That’s what Kelly said he did with the Philadelphia Eagles, as he brought together assistants from different backgrounds to come up with an offense that evolved from what he ran at Oregon.

“I really want to replicate that and bring in some people that have some different viewpoints and different ideas,” Kelly said last week after being introduced as 49ers head coach.
