49ers' Renardo Green once drew Shanahan's ire. Two interceptions in Seattle changed that

In a game against the Seattle Seahawks, San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan criticized cornerback Renardo Green, who was then a second-year player. Shanahan approached Green, lifted his play call list over his mouth, and scolded him during the first quarter. However, nine months later, Green had transformed into a more impressive player.

During the 49ers' 32-29 victory over the Seahawks, Green recorded two interceptions, one of which resulted in prime field position for the 49ers' first touchdown. Shanahan acknowledged Green's improvement, stating that he believes Green's potential is high and that he is already showcasing his skills. Green himself expressed his confidence, attributing it to his self-belief and Shanahan's guidance.
