Bleacher Report's Jason Cole stated today that, as of right now, the San Francisco 49ers are leaning toward keeping head coach Jim Tomsula once the season ends. He stated that management wants to keep some sort of continuity despite going backwards this season.
Cole added that there are some concerns from the 49ers about Tomsula. "However, there are concerns within this organization, and specifically in the locker room, about the ability of Tomsula to control the locker room and get guys focused on playing hard week in and week out," said Cole.
He also states that another concern is Tomsula's ability to attract assistant coaches and top-level talent. While a final decision on Tomsula has not yet been made and that he may ultimately be fired, Cole believes that the team is leaning toward retaining him. "That my not be the best solution for the 49ers long term," Cole said.

We're going to talk about those moments in this edition of 49ers Notebook, as well as a run-in that Christian McCaffrey had with a former 49er, a weird encounter between Deebo Samuel and a fan, and more.

Jason Verrett among several players worked out by 49ers
The San Francisco 49ers recently worked out a familiar face. According to Aaron Wilson of KPRC2, the team took a look at cornerback Jason Verrett, who spent 2019 through 2022 with the Niners. However, multiple injuries limited his ability to contribute to the defense consistently.
Wilson reports that San Francisco also worked out defensive backs Xavier Crawford, Michael Ojemudia, who was signed to the Los Angeles Rams practice squad, and Kendall Sheffield.
