The San Francisco 49ers lost defensive coordinator Robert Saleh this offseason as he took the head coach job with the Tennessee Titans. Meanwhile, 49ers reporter Grant Cohn for On SI shared his thoughts on the three candidates and said he doesn’t see Woods becoming the Niners’ defensive coordinator. “Then he got the defensive coordinator job with the Saints, failed. “Then you got Raheem Morris, who’s legitimately an excellent defensive coordinator,” Cohn added.
