San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan tries to keep his language family-friendly when speaking to the media or doing an interview. However, the head coach is always himself when addressing his players. That was evident in Mobile, Alabama on Tuesday when Shanahan addressed the South squad of the Senior Bowl following practice.
NFL Network caught the head coach being himself as he explained what is expected this week out of the draft prospects before the cameras and audio quickly cut away.
LOL. NFL Network cuts away after listening live to #49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan address his players at the Senior Bowl and hearing some not-so-family-friendly language. pic.twitter.com/fOQ3TB0BUC

Shanahan probably didn't realize or forgot that the network was listening in on the conversation, which made for an amusing situation.
It's not the first time the 49ers head coach has slipped when it comes to his language. There was this humorous slip-up during a press conference in 2017.
"That was bad," Shanahan said while laughing along with reporters. "Just shows my immaturity."
While most would agree that one wasn't so bad, there is at least one instance Shanahan probably wishes he could take back. He was fined $25,000 this past season for this colorful confrontation with an official during the 49ers' Week 13 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks.
