49ers have seemingly cut ties with longtime defensive assistant

As the San Francisco 49ers continue their search for a new defensive coordinator to replace Robert Saleh, who was recently named the new head coach of the Tennessee Titans, it also appears that they'll be looking to replace defensive backs coach/defensive passing game specialist Daniel Bullocks, who joined the franchise back as an assistant DBs coach back in 2017, which of course, was the same year Kyle Shanahan came on board as head coach.

While no official announcement has been made by the club at the time of this writing, the soon-to-be 43-year-old is no longer listed among the assistant coaches on the Niners' official website, which was first noticed by Dieter Kurtenbach of the San Jose Mercury News and KNBR.
