Has Morris ever been considered a good DC? Doesn't he have 1 good year?

The #49ers are expected to hire veteran defensive backs coach Jerry Gray, sources tell @CBSSports.

Gray was assistant head of defense for Atlanta the last three years. In addition to that and his time as a DB coach, was also a defensive coordinator for both the Titans and Bills. pic.twitter.com/RN0r4aWFuY

New DB coach all but official

Love the experience he has, I think it's gonna be a great hire. Daniel Bullocks seemed more like a buddy to the players than an inspiring coach. Need someone to light a fire under these DB's asses and make plays,

Yep. He was a good player too. I remember intercepting quite a few passes with him on the Rams in Tecmo Super Bowl 😂

Great hire honestly because our DBs were making way too many mental mistakes out there. We need an experienced guy to coach up the young guys. Green, Sigle, Malik, Stout, plus the likely CB and S we bring in thru the draft.

It would be absolutely inexcusable to not replace Brown. I don't care if he's a good dude, he's not a needle mover as a football player. Let him go and get the next superstar at S. Sigle can compete and let the best man win.

I would say winning a SB as a DC is pretty damn good. And his D had an impact in that game.
