Colin Kaepernick has a new quarterbacks coach to work with in 2015.
On Tuesday, there was a report that former East Carolina head coach and Boston College offensive coordinator Steve Logan would be taking a job on the 49ers offensive staff. The exact title that Logan would have was unknown, but he told WRAL in North Carolina Wednesday that he’ll be working with Kaepernick and the team’s other signal callers.
Logan last worked on a coaching staff with the Buccaneers from 2009-2011 as the running backs coach and has been working in television since then. He worked with 49ers head coach Jim Tomsula in NFL Europe and said Wednesday that their relationship pushed him back onto the sideline.
“Jim Tomsula is one guy who I would open this can of worms back up for,” Logan said. “The San Francisco 49ers’ roster is a roster that is Super Bowl competitive. [Kaepernick] is my kind of guy -- mobile, accurate and smart.”
The 49ers are still looking for an offensive coordinator with Rob Chudzinski signing up for another year on the Colts staff. Geep Chryst, who was the team’s quarterbacks coach under Jim Harbaugh, is thought to be a candidate for that position.
