It's April 1st. Welcome to NFL News Today, powered by AI. I'm Corey with the story. After the 49ers owner's meetings, five big questions still hang in the air about the team's future. Fans wonder if the defense shifts under new coordinator Rahim Morris, who will suit up for more games between linebacker Dre Greenlaw and running. Back Christian McCaffrey, whether Coach Kyle Shanahan dials back McCaffrey's heavy snaps, if General Manager John Lynch sticks around three years from. Now, and when Star Tackle Trent Williams inks his next deal, Morris plans to tweet the scheme during organized team activities, sticking to core principles but wrapping up man coverage and blitzes since the team. Ranked low there last year, draft picks on the edge could shape it more, pointing to a bolder front in 2026. Injury histories make the Greenlaw McCaffrey showdown tricky, though both aim for all 17 games. Greenlaw bounced back strong last season, while Shanahan eyes lighter loads for McCaffrey, now that receivers demand more defensive focus.

Lynch's long-term spot stays murky with no clear signals, and the Williams holdout feels headed to training camp despite his solid play for last, year when he held firm. These uncertainties keep the hype building as camp nears, with answers dropping soon enough to fuel another 9er's run.
