The San Francisco 49ers are set to hire Raheem Morris as their new defensive coordinator after Robert Saleh left the team to become head coach of the Tennessee Titans. The 49ers will be looking for someone to repair the damage inflicted by injuries on key players Nick Bosa and Fred Warner during the 2025 season.
Morris, who coached in the NFC West previously with the Los Angeles Rams from 2020-2022, has a reputation for being a strong defensive coordinator. During his time with the Rams, Morris played a crucial role in helping the team win Super Bowl LVI under former head coach Sean McVay.
In Atlanta Falcons news, Kevin Stefanski has taken over as head coach of the Falcons after Raheem Morris was fired alongside general manager Terry Fontenot on January 4th. Falcons owner Arthur Blank stated that he wishes both Morris and Terry Fontenot well in their future endeavors but believes it is time for new leadership.
Saleh, who coached the 49ers' defense in 2025 before becoming head coach of the Titans, was announced as Saleh's replacement last week. Former Giants coach Brian Daboll has joined Saleh's staff as offensive coordinator, but the Titans have yet to name a defensive coordinator.

, and we gotta adapt. Raheem Morris taking over as DC for the 49ers shows us that sometimes it takes a fresh perspective to fix what's broken 
. Injuries can be tough, but it's how we respond that matters - do we let them bring us down or use them as an opportunity to grow? 
they need him so bad after those injuries to Bosa and Warner, cant imagine how bad it was for them this season 
anyway, I heard from a friend of a friend (yes, thats a thing) that Raheem Morris is super good at his job, like he helped the Rams win Superbowl LVI under Sean McVay, dont even get me started on how impressive that is 
anywayz, sounds like Kevin Stefanski is taking over the Falcons now, Arthur Blank says hi to Raheem Morris and Terry Fontenot but its time for new leadership, yaaas bye Felicia 
just heard that 49ers got new DC Raheem Morris 
he was awesome with Rams and helped them win Super Bowl LVI 
hopefully he can help fix 49ers' defense which is hurtin' 
Nick Bosa and Fred Warner injured all season 
. I'm excited to see how it turns out 
. Meanwhile, Kevin Stefanski is leadin' Falcons now 
and Arthur Blank wishes Raheem Morris luck on new job 
wish him best too 
. They need someone like Raheem Morris to step up and lead their defense, 'specially with Bosa and Warner out injured. Morris has some solid experience under his belt, so that's a plus 
️. The question is, can he fix the damage done last season? It won't be easy, but I think it's worth a shot 
. On another note, it's crazy how quickly things changed in Atlanta, one week they had Morris and Fontenot, now Stefanski's at the helm 
... I mean, it's just another example of how unstable the NFL is 
. And now he's getting hired by the 49ers? Great, because they were so lucky to have Saleh as their DC last season... meanwhile, the Titans are still searching for a new DC 
. at least Kevin Stefanski's trying to make a change, wonder if it'll be enough to turn things around tho 
. anyway, looks like the Titans are stuck with that mess Saleh just left 'em 
️!
