Shanahan-allegedly-violated NFL rules by naming Klay Kubiak as offensive coordinator

Coach Kyle Shanahan announced the San Francisco 49ers were promoting assistant coach Klay Kubiak to offensive coordinator. According to one report, this decision may have violated NFL rules.

The NFL requires teams to conduct an open search for offensive coordinator positions. There is no indication that the 49ers followed this protocol, meaning the team may now be obligated to comply with the requirement.

It's getting stupid .The NFL wants blacks interviewed. Fine. The niners got 2 3rd round compensatory picks when their minority folk moved on to different teams. Nothing to explain unless you're the DEI enforcers.

Please remember that the NFL is an entertainment venue and NOT a sport.

Klay should tell them that he is black therefor, everything is good.

Shanahan. Kubiak. McCaffrey.

Smells like Denver.

Unfortunately many of us have stopped being entertained.

Is San Francisco in the Playoffs?

My understanding is that coaches can be promoted or hired to a top job for the remainder of a season.

End of season?

All the DEI rules apply.
