Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch will be back with the San Francisco 49ers next year after a disappointing 2024 season, according to team owner Jed York.
York told The San Francisco Standard that Shanahan and Lynch "are not going anywhere," emphasizing that the successful coach-general manager tandem will remain in their current roles.
"You can write that, for sure," York told the Standard before the Niners' game Monday night against the Detroit Lions. "They're not going anywhere."
York was responding to the Standard's question regarding recent speculation that other teams might target Shanahan via a trade to fill their head-coaching vacancy. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Monday that the 49ers are not interested in trading Shanahan and that the two-time NFC championship-winning coach isn't interested in leaving San Francisco.
Shanahan said Tuesday that he has a good relationship with York, adding that the owner's comments to the Standard didn't impact his outlook much.
"I feel confident just I've got a good relationship with Jed, and we speak almost every day, so hearing stuff in the media doesn't really change much for me," he said. "It's more what I have between him and myself."
Shanahan also dismissed trade talk earlier this month, saying, "I don't want to be any place in the world more than here."
Lynch echoed those sentiments in a separate interview ahead of the 49ers' game Dec. 8 against the Chicago Bears, who have been linked to Shanahan since firing coach Matt Eberflus last month.
"I've found the whole discussion on Kyle and some of the stuff rather comical," Lynch told San Francisco radio station KNBR. "We have won four of the last five division championships. We've been in two Super Bowls.
"The standard here is to win championships, and we've fallen short of that, but we have an excellent head coach. And the fact people are talking about stuff like that, I do find it comical."
Shanahan and Lynch signed multiyear extensions with the Niners in September 2023.
San Francisco fell to 6-10 with Monday night's home loss to Detroit and is nearing the end of its first losing season since 2020. The Niners have reached the NFC Championship Game four times and have two Super Bowl appearances in eight seasons since hiring Shanahan and Lynch as their coach and GM, respectively.
"Jed is very easy to talk to," Shanahan said Tuesday. "We've known each other here for now eight years, and we feel very fortunate for how he is through the good and the bad and the communication really never changes, regardless of what's going on."
