| 4/20/25 | Why the 49ers Promoted Klay Kubiak to OC Instead of Brian Griese. When Kyle Shanahan decided to hire an offensive coordinator this offseason, he didn't promote Brian Griese who played quarterback in the NFL and was the 49ers' quarterbacks coach for three years. Instead, Shanahan promoted Klay Kubiak, who was the assistant quarterbacks coach in 2022 and 2023, which means he was Griese's underling. In 2024, the 49ers promoted Kubiak to passing game specialist while they did not promote Griese. Source: https://www.si.com/nfl/49ers/news/why-49ers-promot... |

| 2/27/25 | 49ers GM John Lynch opens up on Brian Griese's stunning departure. When Brian Griese agreed to join the 49ers' coaching staff for the 2022 season, he gave head coach Kyle Shanahan a three-year commitment. Griese's profile as the team's quarterbacks coach rose in those three years, especially for elevating Brock Purdy from Mr. Irrelevant status to franchise QB, and his performance even landed him on the Jets' head coaching candidates list this offseason. Yet, in a stunner, Griese turned down an interview offer from the Jets and then walked away from his role in San Francisco. 3 Brian Griese talking with Brock Purdy before the 49ers faced the Jets.

| 2/26/25 | NFL rumors: The truth behind Brian Griese's exit from 49ers coaching staff. The San Francisco 49ers are intent on bouncing back after enduring a tough season in 2024 that saw them deal with a plethora of injuries and miss out on the playoffs entirely just a year after they very nearly won Super Bowl 58. Changes are being made, starting with Kyle Shanahan's coaching staff, as it was revealed quarterbacks coach Brian Griese surprisingly won't be reprising his role with the team in 2025.

| 2/25/25 | 49ers unveil Shanahan's overhauled staff as NFL carousel stops. SANTA CLARA — Season No. 9 for 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan comes with his staff's most significant overhaul. New coordinators are in place: Robert Saleh returns to the defense after three-plus seasons as the New York Jets coach, Brant Boyer leaves his post with the Jets to oversee the 49ers' troubled special teams, and Klay Kubiak gets promoted on offense, where plays still will be called by Shanahan. In a surprise, Brian Griese has been replaced after three years as quarterbacks coach by Mick Lombardi, who returned to Shanahan's staff a year ago as a senior offensive assistant. Griese has been a staunch advocate and mentor of Brock Purdy since his 2022 arrival as the NFL Draft's last pick. Shanahan Source: https://www.montereyherald.com/2025/02/25/49ers-un... |
