The San Francisco 49ers have made it clear that Kyle Shanahan is their choice for head coach, and further indications suggest a deal should get done next week. There have been reports Shanahan is expected to formally accept the job, but there will be contract and personnel power negotiations to be handled.
On Wednesday, NFL Network reporter Mike Silver offered up some interesting insight about Shanahan. Silver said he spoke to Shanahan after the team’s win over Seattle this past Saturday. He asked Shanahan about the interview process and how difficult it was to keep things compartmentalized.
