49ers don’t hear back on request to interview Bucs’ Dirk Koetter
On Tuesday, the San Francisco 49ers requested to interview Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter. They have not yet heard back.
ESPN's Adam Schefter believes that this is a hint that Koetter is the favorite to become the next head coach of the Buccaneers.
This past season was Koetter's first with the Buccaneers. Prior to that, he spent time as an offensive coordinator for the Atlanta Falcons and Jacksonville Jaguars. He also has college head coaching experience during stints with Arizona State and Boise State where he has a career record of 66-44, including going 4-2 in Bowl games.

The San Francisco 49ers are in good shape for 2024 when it comes to the wide receiver position. What that room looks like after this coming season remains to be seen. Most believe the 49ers will give Brandon Aiyuk a new contract around the start of training camp. But there are no guarantees. As it was reported on Friday, Aiyuk unfollowed the 49ers on Instagram, much like Deebo Samuel did two years ago.
