Stay or go? Checking the status of 49ers’ assistant coaches

SANTA CLARA -- The 49ers’ 2016 assistant coaches are under contract for next season but are free to pursue other jobs, CEO Jed York said earlier this month. Some have already done so, some are in the process of interviewing and others might not have to move at all. Here’s a look at the situation.

Jason Tarver, who coached outside linebackers for the 49ers in 2016, is in Washington today to interview for that team's defensive coordinator position. Tarver spent six seasons in San Francisco when Scot McCloughan ran the team's personnel department and there is a familiarity there.
