Monday, January 18, 2010 | Niner Cap Hell

Matt Maiocco reports that the 49ers have replaced fired ST coach
Al Everest with
Kurt Schottenheimer, the younger brother of Marty and uncle of Jets offensive coordinator Brian. He has been a defensive and special teams coordinator at both the NFL and college levels in the past for three decades, most recently as the secondary coach for the Packers and has not coached special teams since 1994 with the Kansas City Chiefs. Last week the 49ers interviewed their #1 candidate, former Bills ST coach
Bobby April, but April chose to go to Philadelphia instead.
