49ers ‘In No Rush’ to Hire DC to Replace Steve Wilks, GM John Lynch Says | News, Scores, Highlights, Stats, and Rumors

San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch suggested Thursday that he does not intend to hastily fill the team’s defensive coordinator vacancy.

According to ESPN’s Nick Wagoner, Lynch said: “We’re in no rush. We kind of know who we are, who we’re going to be, and that’s not going to make a wholesale schematic change there. We feel good about where we’re at.”

Despite reaching Super Bowl LVIII last season and taking the Kansas City Chiefs to overtime in what was ultimately a 25-22 loss, 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan fired defensive coordinator Steve Wilks earlier this month, ending his tenure with the team after just one year.
