Kyle Shanahan recently addressed the media concerning the state of the 49ers after a disappointing season. He discussed the challenges presented by losing key players, notably Dre Greenlaw, while maintaining optimism about the team's future with healthy players like Christian McCaffrey. Shanahan highlighted the NFL's inherent budget-related restrictions that force teams to change rosters. He pointed to the successful examples of the Rams and Bills in recovering from turnover and reinforced his active role in navigating these challenges rather than simply coaching.
Shanahan acknowledged the challenges of significant roster changes, stating, "A lot of guys you care about, a lot of good players go, but it's part of this business."
On the search for Dre Greenlaw, Shanahan said, "I anticipated it. I've known it's coming for awhile... it's still not very much fun going through it."
He cited the Rams and Bills as examples, commenting, "I agree there are blueprints for quickly succeeding after roster turnover; you understand how the salary cap works."
Describing his role, Shanahan emphasized, "It's not like you're sitting down there and just coaching and blowing a whistle... if you do, it's going to balance out."
