The San Francisco 49ers are coming off of their second-straight win and third in the past four games. Following the 26-16 victory over the Houston Texans on Sunday, the excitement level inside the 49ers locker room at NRG Stadium was high. You can watch head coach Kyle Shanahan address his team in the video, courtesy of 49ers Media, below.


In the video, you can see 49ers CEO Jed York greeting players as they enter the locker room and quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo receiving congratulations on his second win as a starter with the team. Then, Shanahan interrupts the team celebration to offer his congratulations and hand out game balls.


"The way we started out, we missed a number of big plays in that first quarter," Shanahan told his team. "It didn't phase any of you guys. I mean, the way Juice (Kyle Juszczyk) came back, Jimmy (Garoppolo), Quise (Marquise Goodwin), (Garrett) Celek-time. [Adrian Colbert] finished with the turnover, (Aaron) Lynch got the fumble, I think we had a couple of sacks there too. Special teams did a hell of a job too.

"I know there's a ton of guys from Houston who this is a big deal to. All you guys are getting game balls. I want to give one guy in particular. He won't tell anyone at all. He won't even say it, but it meant a lot. This is his first time coming back, and I want to give one to [equipment manager Jay Brunetti]."

This is Brunetti's first year with the 49ers. He spent 14 seasons with the Houston Texans from 2001 through 2014. He was in Houston when Shanahan was the receivers and quarterbacks coach, and offensive coordinator for the Texans.
