49ers interview 2 defensive coordinator candidates, including former DC

The San Francisco 49ers are expeditiously conducting defensive coordinator interviews, having already met with former DC Robert Saleh and Lions' Deshea Townsend, highlighting strategic efforts.

Saleh's past success as 49ers' DC, transforming a struggling defense from 2017-2018 to one of the league's best by 2019, makes him a strong contender.

Deshea Townsend, with extensive coaching experience and a solid background as a player, is also emerging as a promising candidate for the 49ers' DC role.

The 49ers' previous attempt at a DC with a secondary background through Steve Wilks is noted to have lasted only one season, indicating challenges in that direction.
