Chip Kelly is getting another chance with an NFL team, as the 49ers have hired him to be their next head coach.
49ers coach Jim Tomsula says he's "evaluating everything" about his team, including whether Colin Kaepernick should still be the starting quarterback.
Carlos Hyde, the NFL's ninth-leading rusher with 470 yards, had not practiced this week; he suffered the injury against the Giants on Oct. 11.
Coach Jim Tomsula disputed reports that Colin Kaepernick is isolated in the 49ers locker room and likened any friction on the team to "an Italian dining room table."
Colin Kaepernick said Thursday that new 49ers coach Jim Tomsula is allowing him to be himself this season and not "to do things outside of my character."
Jim Tomsula told Pittsburgh media on a conference call in advance of Sunday's Steelers-49ers game that Colin Kaepernick's game doesn't need fixing.
