Richard Hightower-Chicago Bears Special Teams Coach

Does this mean the niners didn't want him back? Or does it mean he wanted to be with the bears? It's a parallel move, so I'm assuming the niners didn't want him back.

could have blocked the deal.. but did not.. .so that tells everyone that KS10 be happy that another team took him from us..

on the other note, should we not replace our CONDITIONING COACH??
Another big Improvement from the 9ers. I'm already loving this off-season and the season isn't even officially over with yet.
49ers should request an interview for Ravens Assistant Special Teams Coach Chris Horton.

Horton and Kyle have a connection since he played for Mike Shanahan as rookie in Washington. He has been getting high praise as coach.

Isn't Horton the Special Teams coach? Not Assistant? If so, Ravens could block that.

He has been the Ravens ST coordinator the last 4 seasons.

I would fire Ben Pederson and Dustin Perry after Sunday since not only let many players work with injuries most of the season without a real progress of recovery.

I recommend Raiders Strength and Conditioning Coach AJ Neibel and Vikings Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach Derek Keyes to replace them.

It'd be fun to get a guy like Alex Spanos from northwestern. Jacked up guy on the sidelines pumping up the players and maybe doing enough to prevent and rehab injuries.
Let's hope Bisaccia doesn't sign with the Pack. He may be a good one.

Tha'll be something new.. I've always believe that Special Team coach should be one of the toughest coaches on the team...

Its a done deal. I'm more bummed that Chris Tabor joined up with Carolina. He's been one of the top three or four special teams coaches in football over the past 15 years.

Remember Bubba Ventrone?



He's the special teams coordinator for the Colts now, and the #2 ranked special teams unit in the NFL.

Is this the real life?
Yes!! Hightower gone. Glad to see Kyle isn't afraid to replace his friends if they aren't cutting it.

Right? I guess the bears realized the only way Rodgers won't own them is if Hightower has his guys block a punt and field goal every game.
