The 49ers ultimately decided not to give Jim Tomsula more than one year to try and make things work in San Francisco, firing the long-time 49ers coach (and one-year head coach) after a single season on Sunday night.
“Jimmy has been a valuable member of the 49ers organization for the last nine years,” said CEO Jed York. “We all know he is a man of high character, and his contributions on the field and in our community have always been greatly appreciated. This entire organization is proud and grateful to have worked so closely alongside Jimmy.
