Kyle Shanahan won’t name starting quarterback until team returns from four-day break

If you were hoping for an answer on the San Francisco 49ers’ quarterback position, you’re going to have wait a few more days. Head coach Kyle Shanahan said he has not decided on who will start in Week 10 against the New York Giants between Nick Mullens and C.J. Beathard.

The team has extra rest before Monday Night Football, and the players are getting four days off before returning to practice. Shanahan said he is going to take his time, and does not want to announce a decision while the players are away from the facility.
