Dinner date? 49ers’ Jed York extends olive branch to Jim Harbaugh

Jed York and Jim Harbaugh breaking bread together?

The 49ers CEO said he’s hopeful that will happen. York extended an olive branch to his former head coach when asked on the MMBQB Podcast with Peter King if he has any regrets about not signing Harbaugh to a contract extension before their union dissolved after the 2014 season.

York, of course, has been asked multiple times about his “mutual parting” with Harbaugh, but he offered his most expansive answer on King’s podcast.

A possible reason? The 49ers have a 7-25 record since Harbaugh’s exit, but they appear to be trending in the right direction after hiring head coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch.
