Overview
- Multiple outlets report Seattle is bringing in 49ers run game coordinator and tight ends coach Brian Fleury to replace Klint Kubiak, who left to coach the Raiders.
- Fleury spent seven seasons with San Francisco after joining in 2019, progressing from quality control roles to tight ends coach and adding run game coordinator duties in 2025.
- It will be Fleury’s first time calling plays in the NFL, signaling continuity of the Shanahan-influenced system that powered Seattle’s 2025 offense.
- George Kittle reacted to the news with a one-word post, writing “Sad,” as the 49ers now face filling both tight ends coach and run game coordinator responsibilities.
- The hire follows additional staff movement tied to Kubiak’s departure, with reports that Raiders are also adding Seahawks quarterbacks coach Andrew Janocko as offensive coordinator.
