The San Francisco 49ers got their window of opportunity to interview Kyle Shanahan on Saturday and now, they have hit the waiting period. Matt Maiocco reported that around 11:00 PM in Atlanta things wound down. That of course leads to the silence period; the 49ers can’t talk to Shanahan until after the Super Bowl.
So now, the 49ers, and all of us by extension, get to wait. Details of what happened in the interview will no doubt trickle out the coming week, and we may see an announcement regarding the hiring of a general manager, granted presumed front-runner George Paton gets the job.
