San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan is experiencing lingering effects from a severe concussion sustained in a car crash earlier this month, general manager John Lynch said Friday.
Lynch stated during a press conference that Shanahan is being managed similarly to an NFL player in concussion protocol. The team's medical staff, including Dr. Anthony Saglimbeni, are overseeing his care and dictating his return timeline.
"Kyle basically is going to be like in the protocol," Lynch said. "Doc [Anthony Saglimbeni] and all the great doctors we have are giving him great care, and we’re going to let you know [his] condition… the doctors dictate how he comes back, when he comes back."
Shanahan is expected to be present at training camp as his condition allows.
