Merry Christmas to everybody! Our friends at the 49ers sub-Reddit found some video of the Texas Longhorns facing the Houston Cougars back in 2002. This is of note because current 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan was a wide receiver at the time. He caught four passes for 28 yards from then quarterback Chris Simms. For those who forget, Shanahan, Simms, and a couple other players have matching tattoos from those days. Shanahan talked about it this past August, and Simms talked about it shortly before the 49ers hired Shanahan.
Alex Tran cut up the video to show Shanahan’s specific highlights. Enjoy!
