About this episode
Raheem Morris turned 50—but his birthday vanished into thin air thanks to a wild time zone jump. The San Francisco 49ers flew to Australia a week early for their season opener, landing on September 4th after departing on the night of September 2nd. Confused by the clock, Morris thought he was living in the future, calling Monday “Wednesday” as he scrambled to adjust. For a coach who thrives on routine, it was chaos.

On September 7, so get this. The San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator, Rahim Morris, turned 50 years old on September 3rd, but here's the kicker. He technically didn't even experience his birthday. The team flew out to Australia a week early to get used to the time difference for their season opener. They left on the night of September 2nd, but because of the massive time jump, when they landed, it was already September 4th. So yeah, his entire birthday just vanished. Of course, himself was pretty tripped out by it, talking about how his clock said one thing, but his family's time was showing yesterday. He felt like he was living in the future, and the whole game planned schedule got messed up too. He was calling what was actually Monday, Wednesday, because that's when they usually start planning. It sounds like a total mind-warp, trying to keep track of what day it even is. It's wild to think about how travel and time zones can just erase a whole day from your life. Our coach, who's probably all about routine and structure, that must have been incredibly
disorienting. You think turning 50 would be a big deal, but for him, it was just a blur of travel and confusion. Now the team was in Australia for their season opener, which is a pretty big deal. They were trying to get settled and focused, but this whole birthday situation probably added an extra layer of weirdness to their trip. You have to wonder if anyone on the team or staff even remembered it was his birthday, or if they were all just as confused as he was. Hopefully, somewhere along the line, maybe on the flight, or when they finally got settled, someone made sure Raheem Morris got some kind of... Acknowledgement for hitting the Big 5-0. Even if the day itself was lost to the time difference, the milestone is still real, and you gotta celebrate that. This has been NFL News Today, powered by AI. I'm Corey with the story.
