Report: Kyle Shanahan quietly signed contract extension with 49ers
On the heels of San Francisco's dominant victory over the Rams in Australia comes some news about their head coach.
The 49ers have quietly extended head coach Kyle Shanahan's contract, according to reports from Tom Pelissero of Netflix. Shanahan's previous deal was reportedly set to run through the 2027 season, but the specifics of this new agreement remain undisclosed. Shanahan, who joined the franchise in 2017 after a two-season stint with Atlanta as an offensive coordinator, is on track to surpass the team's all-time leader in victories, George Seifert, with his 108 wins.
As of now, Shanahan boasts 92 regular season and postseason triumphs over his 10-year tenure with the 49ers, falling 10 victories short of Hall of Famer Bill Walsh. The team has secured two NFC Championships under Shanahan's leadership, in 2019 and 2023, both falling to the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl. Despite a significant injury crisis last season, the 49ers still managed to secure a 12-5 record and a playoff appearance.
Following their recent victory over the Rams in Australia, the 49ers will open the new season at home against the Dolphins on Sunday.
