49ers QB Coach Brian Griese Thread

49ers fired quarterbacks coach Brian Griese.

Griese got a request to interview for the Jets head coaching vacancy earlier this year, and had an interview with the Saints for their offensive coordinator position in 2024. He likely has enough connections to find a new NFL coaching gig if he wants it. We'll see where the 49-year-old former quarterback winds up, but it's pretty late in the cycle for him to get more than an assistant gig for 2025.

Kind of shocked Griese is being replaced. Curious what happened there.

I don't think he liked the tough schedule. TV is much more cushy.

Heard he wanted more money and Jed said no.

Just announced today that Mick Lombardi was the new QB coach and Brian is not on the coaching staff but I don't believe anyone actually knows why he's not back. Anything else right now is speculation.

Don't really care, but would make sense.

Just listening to Lombardi live cast on YouTube. It was just reported he was not ousted. Very respected but he just does not want to coach right now. It's very time consuming. He did turn down a request by Jets to interview HC. He declined. Well it's the Jets but he just doesn't want to commit to that amount of time it takes to coach in NFL.

i'm sure John will say same tomorrow.

This is straight from John Lynch:

He signed a two-year contract to join coach Kyle Shanahan's staff but had to sort out with his family whether to remain in coaching. His family remained in Denver during the season. He has a daughter who will be entering her senior year and an eighth-grade son.

"As much as he loved it, it's tough being away from them," 49ers general manager John Lynch said Tuesday at the NFL Scouting Combine. "But they're well set up in Denver. He had to go weigh all of that.

"He had us nervous because you can't fight that. You can't say, 'Ah, no, that's not a big deal.' We understand that, so he went through that process."
