Former Raiders DC Jason Tarver retained on new 49ers staff by Kyle Shanahan

The 49ers like Jason Tarver so much, he will be again be retained while much of the staff has turned over with new head coach Kyle Shanahan in place.

This isn’t the first time Tarver has been brought back by the 49ers. He got his first NFL job in 2001 with the 49ers as a offensive quality control coach before eventually landing as the team’s outside linebackers coach for six seasons from 2005-10.

After one season in the college ranks at Stanford, he got his first NFL defensive coordinator job with the Raiders, where he would spend the next three seasons on Dennis Allen’s staff.
