The San Francisco 49ers signed head coach Kyle Shanahan to a new multi-year contract Monday.
Shanahan's deal is a new six-year pact that will replace the three years left on his current contract, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Shanahan signed a six-year deal with the 49ers in February 2017 and, in his third season, led the team to a Super Bowl appearance. He'll now remain under contract through the 2025 campaign and will be among the five highest-paid coaches in the league, Schefter reports.
The 40-year-old has helped turn around a franchise that was coming off a 2-14 season upon his hiring. Shanahan led the Niners to a 6-10 record his first season and 4-12 the next year when starting quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo went down with a season-ending injury in Week 3.
San Francisco went 13-3 in 2019, the top record in the NFC, and came within a quarter of defeating the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIV.
