DeMeco Ryans is starting to put together his coaching staff with the Houston Texans. It's reasonable to understand why he might be interested in some of his former San Francisco 49ers colleagues.
According to NFL insider Ian Rapoport, the Texans are requesting permission to interview 49ers offensive passing game coordinator Bobby Slowik about Houston's offensive coordinator job.
Slowik has been part of Kyle Shanahan's staff since 2017, the same year Ryans joined the 49ers. Slowik served as a defensive assistant with Washington before joining the 49ers as a defensive quality control coach. He moved on to become an offensive assistant (2019-20), offensive pass game specialist (2021), and offensive passing game coordinator (2022) under Shanahan.

The 49ers will know more in June, when Purdy begins throwing again and starts ramping up his workload as part of his rehab.
"It might be Week 1," Shanahan said. "I think I'm hearing, at the latest, Week 4. But that's just all estimations, and we'll see what

49ers considered trading Mike McGlinchey last year
Mike McGlinchey received a life-changing payday, signing a five-year, $87.5 million deal with the Denver Broncos. The offensive tackle has known for a while that he would not return to the San Francisco 49ers, the only NFL team he has played for and the one that made him the No. 9 overall pick in 2018.
General manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan made it clear to McGlinchey that he was likely playing his final months for the team. There was too much money invested in other spots, and the 49ers knew they couldn't compete with other interested teams.
Behind the scenes, Lynch and Shanahan kept McGlinchey in the loop of what the team was thinking, and everything pointed to the tackle playing elsewhere in 2023 … maybe even
