San Francisco 49ers head coach Jim Tomsula spoke to the media today. He confirmed that yesterday's surgeries for
QB Colin Kaepernick (left shoulder) and
DL Glenn Dorsey (ACL) were successful and that both players are in the recovery phase. Kaepernick's surgery was in Vail, Colorado and Dorsey's was at Stanford in California.
LB Ahmad Brooks came into the week complaining about a headache. As a precaution, he was put into the concussion protocol after playing a full game on Sunday in Seattle.
RB Carlos Hyde will not practice with the team today and Tomsula said that he is still "day-to-day."
When asked about his job security, Tomsula said, "My long-term goal is Sunday. That's where I stay." Tomsula said that he has not had a conversation with management about his future with the 49ers. "Just to your point right there, we're in a performance-based business and all of us in it get it," added Tomsula.
One reporter asked Tomsula about his favorite Thanksgiving food. "It's all good. I mean, look at me. My wife's a good cook," he replied.

Sam Darnold is the newest San Francisco 49ers quarterback. He joins a quarterback room that includes third-year passer Trey Lance and second-year player Brock Purdy.

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
