Jerry McDonald has been with the Bay Area News Group for more than 30 years, with a heavy concentration of NFL football since the Raiders returned to Oakland in 1995. His all-time favorite athlete is a right-handed pitcher at Division III Linfield College in Oregon.
“I talked to a number of guys on the team, we squashed it and now we’re good,” 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday, the day after Samuel had some words for place kicker Jake Moody after his third missed field goal and ended up taking a swipe at long-snapper Taybor Pepper.
After the game and stuff I didn’t think it was too big of a deal. But after getting home and seeing it on Sports Center and all that stuff I wanted to make sure I did and talk to the guys about it.”“I fine people for breaking rules,” Shanahan said. “This is just people being football players and dealing with stuff on the sidelines and I didn’t really chalk that up to a big deal at all.”
“You never sit there and belittle anybody or embarrass anyone. You try to challenge guys you believe in. You tell them to focus because you know they can do this. I like Pep’s attention on it. He’s got his kicker’s back, but I think he kind of interpreted wrong what Deebo Was doing and overreacted a little bit. And Deebo didn’t like that and got him out of his face and that’s where it ended.
