Different guy.
Chris Harris Jr played corner for the Broncos and is still playing
This Chris Harris was a safety who was second team All Pro for the Bears

For real. The players already loved and respected Ryans as they were transitioning from Saleh. Now?

That's why Fangio would have been great. Well known and respected around the league. It would have been impressive…sucks for us.

Reading a bit into Wilks.
https://www.rockmnation.com/2021/1/22/22243470/who-is-steve-wilks
We have three years of evidence of what a "Steve Wilks defense" looks like. He spent one year in charge of the defense at Carolina (2017), Arizona (2018) and Cleveland (2019). His defense finished in the top four in the NFL blitz rate all three seasons, according to Football Outsiders.

I'm confused, has the Titans hired Harris as their defensive pass coordinator or is he still available. I'm looking at the article dated Jan. 21, 2023, a couple of posts above.

Because there's a contingency where the deal is off if someone hires him as a defensive coordinator.

Next you're gonna tell me this isn't one of the greatest wide receivers of all time.

My top three candidates:
1. Chris Harris
2. Steve Wilks
3. Anyone currently on the 49ers defensive staff
Anyone on the staff lol? That's insinuating everyone on the staff is capable
Well I mean anyone of the candidates that Shanahan has in mind.

Commanders DBs coach Chris Harris interviewed for the 49ers defensive coordinator job on Tuesday. And I'm told that if he doesn't land that job, the likelihood is he ends up on Mike Vrabel's staff in Tennessee.

Back the f**k off
The #Texans have interest in #49ers D-line Coach Kris Kocurek for their vacant Defensice Coordinator job.
— Sterling Bennett (@49ers_Access) February 3, 2023
Kyle Shanahan is focused on keeping his staff intact and has made retaining Kocurek a priority, per @AaronWilson_NFL
