With Football Night in America moving to live broadcasts from each game site, Florio faces challenges balancing PFT Live and ProFootballTalk. Former quarterback Chris Simms will co-host PFT Live four days a week, joining him for most appearances. Florio has not spoken with the 49ers about their handling of coach Kyle Shanahan's car accident, believing no comment was needed.",
