The season has barely ended, and the San Francisco 49ers are wasting no time zeroing in on their pick for defensive coordinator. Earlier this week, Josina Anderson reported that the 49ers were expected to offer Robert Saleh the job.
Now ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler and Dan Graziano add to the news that Saleh is the front-runner. Writing on ESPN.com, both had information about the 49ers search and a possible Plan B if Saleh should decide to take a head coaching job.
Graziano confirms what we’ve heard from his sources that Saleh is the favorite for the 49ers.
