ESPN • • sports
Key Points:
- San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan suffered multiple injuries, including a broken nose, three ribs, a hand fracture, facial stitches, and a severe concussion, in a car crash on July 14 near his northern California home.
- Shanahan was hospitalized briefly and is recovering at home but will have limited participation in training camp until concussion symptoms subside; assistant head coach Chris Foerster will take over some coaching duties.
- The crash involved no drugs or alcohol, both drivers were cooperative, and no citations were issued; the 49ers confirmed the incident publicly on July 22.
- Shanahan is entering his 10th season with the 49ers, aiming to tie Bill Walsh for the longest head coaching tenure in franchise history and potentially move into second place for most regular-season wins with the team.
