San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan stepped up to the podium today at the NFL Scouting Combine and spoke to the media about quarterbacks, defensive coordinator Robert Saleh, free agent evaluations, and much more.

Shanahan discussed the report that Colin Kaepernick would opt out of the final year of his contract and become a free agent. "I know that we don't really have any under contract," Shanahan said. "Kaepernick is but just seeing that today that he's probably going to opt out here in a week or so -- whenever that is. So we don't have anyone on our roster so I've thrown them into the category of everybody else who is free agents and possibilities going into the draft. Those are the guys that we're comparing to who you see in the free agent market, who there is in the draft and trade possibilities and our guys who were on our roster last year is really the group we're picking from."
