Kyle Shanahan held a conference call on Monday afternoon, and there were two injuries to report from the NFC Championship game. Tight end George Kittle has a toe injury. Cornerback Ambry Thomas has an ankle injury. Both players are considered day-to-day.
Shanahan says he hasn’t considered bringing in a defensive consultant/advisor for the Super Bowl like other teams have. The Philadelphia Eagles did the same with Vic Fangio last year, and now he’s their defensive coordinator.
The question comes on the heels of a lackluster first-half performance by the defense. It was fair to ask.
