It’s all about familiarity for the San Francisco 49ers in 2025. They’re expected to bring back former Vice President of Player Personnel Ethan Waugh to the front office, according to KRPC’s Aaron Wilson.
Waugh spent the past three years as the assistant general manager for the Jacksonville Jaguars, which came after 17 years with the 49ers organization.
Waugh was a key member of the 49ers' personnel department before his departure, working his way up the ladder over 18 years. He began as a personnel assistant (2004-08), then became a regional scout (2008-11), a senior personnel assistant (2012-14), a senior player personnel coordinator (2015-17), director of college scouting and football systems (2018-21), and finally ended as the Vice President of Player Personnel from 2021-22.
