After one year as the San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator, Robert Saleh has moved on to the Tennessee Titans to take the head coach job.
It was the least surprising move of the offseason. Each passing week suggested Saleh would receive offers to lead organizations again, as the 49ers’ defense performed extremely well without Nick Bosa and Fred Warner. He ultimately ended up with the Titans.
He brought Gus Bradley in as the Titans’ defensive coordinator, a move that came as no surprise to many considering their close affiliation.
But one 49ers coach remained, and that can be seen as Saleh’s parting gift to the organization.
