Chip Kelly won't discuss his future with the 49ers until 'after the season'

The San Francisco 49ers ended a franchise-long 13-game losing skid against the Rams on Saturday, improving their terrible record to 2-13. It’s been a disastrous season for Chip Kelly in his first year as the team’s head coach, and it’s led to some speculation as to whether he’ll be back in 2017.

There’s been little talk from 49ers brass assuring him of his job, and even Kelly himself doesn’t want to comment on the situation. He’ll leave that discussion for after the season concludes.

He’s only worried about beating the Seahawks in the season finale.

“I’m concerned with Seattle. So that shouldn’t be discussed during the season,” he said of whether he’ll be back next year, via the Mercury News. “So, we’ll discuss it after the season.”

“You would think that’s when it would happen, right? We’ve said the same thing every week,” he said.
