San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator DeMeco Ryans spoke to the media for the first time on Wednesday afternoon. So, naturally, there were cliches. Ryan wants his defense to be fast and aggressive, as is the case with most new defensive coordinators.
In Ryans’ case, he made it a point to go out of his way to say how he’ll be different from Robert Saleh, and the players who spoke after Ryan hinted at the same. But, unfortunately, at least a month and a half until training camp, we'll still have to wait to see what wrinkles and blitzes Ryans uses.
