Klint Kubiak and the San Francisco 49ers are gearing up to face the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl 58. However, after the game, the offensive passing game specialist might bid farewell to the team.
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the New Orleans Saints are in the process of "working to hire" Kubiak as their offensive coordinator under head coach Dennis Allen. It's important to note that a formal deal can only be concluded after Super Bowl 58.
