Pierre Garçon believed Kyle Shanahan would become a head coach

Recently signed San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Pierre Garçon is entering his 10th season in the league, and is joining his third team. His first time living on the West coast became a reunion with his former coach Kyle Shanahan who he worked with in Washington. Joining Shanahan has was an attractive option as his best season came in 2013 when Garçon led the league with 113 receptions and had a career-high 1,346 receiving yards, all in Shanahan’s system.

He spoke at length to the media after the press conference. During the formal press conference, I asked him about his former Indianapolis Colts position coach Clyde Christensen and what the latter meant to him.
