Katie Sowers' Sister Liz Says 49ers Disrespected Coach with Team Plane Seat

The sister of San Francisco 49ers assistant coach Katie Sowers is calling out the franchise for allegedly disrespecting Sowers with her seat assignment on the team's flight last weekend.

In a since-deleted Instagram post (viaNBC Sports Washington), Liz Sowers said all Niners coaches except Katie were given first-class seats on the team flight back from a Week 3 victory against the New York Giants.

"How do we expect even internet trolls to respect her as a coach when it sure seems like she's disrespected by her own organization," Liz Sowers wrote.
