George Kiddell has high praise for Robert Salah, his former defensive coordinator who's now with the Tennessee Titans. Kiddell says Salah's open door policy goes way beyond football, noting they talked more this year than in the previous four years combined. Salah loves diving into conspiracy theories during their chats. Kiddell visited Salah's office twice a week for five to thirty minutes at a time. He calls Salah a master at inspiring players with great messaging and putting them in positions to succeed. Even with injuries hitting the 49ers defense hard last season, they still won 13 games. Salah built top five defenses during his time with the 49ers and as head coach of the New York Jets from 2021 to 2. 1024. The Titans struggled at three wins and 14 losses last year and haven't made the playoffs since 2021. Kiddell believes they'll thrive with Salah leading and second year quarterback Cam Ward.

Meanwhile, Kiddell shared a positive update on his own recovery from a torn Achilles suffered in the 49ers wild card playoff win over the Philadelphia Eagles. He's ditched the boot on his right leg, expects to drop the crutches soon and calls his progress fantastic. He tore two ligaments in his ankle during week 16 against the Indianapolis Colts, which led to compensating and putting extra strain on that.
