"The Texans had interest in 49ers defensive line coach Kris Kocurek for their defensive coordinator position, but sources emphasized that Kocurek will remain with the 49ers. Kocurek, a Texas Tech graduate and former NFL defensive lineman, could potentially receive an upgraded salary and/or job title," wrote Wilson.
Kocurek had previously been on record stating his preference for coaching the defensive line, as opposed to a coordinator position, and is primed to remain in his role with the 49ers, despite receiving interest from the Texans for their defensive coordinator position.
The Texans aren't done searching from the 49ers' coaching staff, as they have an interest in 49ers' defensive passing game specialist and secondary coach Cory Undlin, according to Wilson, in addition to Washington Commanders secondary coach Chris Harris, whom San Francisco has requested to interview for their vacant defensive coordinator position.
