Former San Francisco 49ers tackle Joe Staley and his former coach, Kyle Shanahan, got together over the weekend for the Fourth of July holiday. A video emerged from the reunion and quickly went viral. It featured Shanahan displaying some nice accuracy in a throw from one rooftop to a deck across the street.

Staley resides just outside San Diego. Shanahan always spends time in the area during the team's offseason break.

"We get together every few days," Staley said Tuesday on 95.7 The Game's The Morning Roast. "We had a little thing for the Fourth, over in his area, where he lives at."

The former offensive lineman discussed the much-discussed throw by Shanahan.

"The funny thing about that video was the build-up," Staley continued, "because Kyle was talking like for five minutes before that video about how he was gonna hit it in that little pizza oven, and we're like, 'No, you're not. You're not gonna do that. There's no way you can hit it.'

"And then his other buddy took the video, and first one, first take, (he did it). He didn't stop talking about it the rest of the day."

Staley was asked if Shanahan really did hit his target on the first throw.

"I swear on my children's life, first throw," Staley responded.
