49ers assistant Brian Griese quits coaching after surprising decision to pass on Jets interview
NY Post
It now makes sense why Brian Griese passed on a head coaching interview with the Jets.
The 49ers announced Tuesday their coaching staff for the 2025 season and Griese was surprisingly absent from the list, as Mick Lombardi will take over his role as the quarterbacks coach.
San Francisco also officially promoted Klint Kubiak to serve as the team’s offensive coordinator.
Multiple outlets reported that Griese spearheaded this move and decided to leave coaching, rather than the 49ers firing him.
Griese reportedly previously considered leaving the 49ers after his first year with the team in 2022 as his family stayed in Denver while he coached in San Francisco.
After “weighing family considerations,” Griese chose to stay in the role.

Edwin Diaz explained his decision to leave the Mets for the Dodgers. The closer headed west for a three-year, $69 million contract with the two-time defending World Series Champions over the same terms and $3 million fewer with the Mets — who reportedly “had some wiggle room” on their initial offer.But it wasn’t just about the money, the 31-year-old said in his first Los Angeles press conference on Friday.
