DeMeco Ryans: “It was just unfortunate to see them lose that way.”
DeMeco Ryans, the current head coach of the Houston Texans, had a strong emotional reaction to the San Francisco 49ers’ loss in the Super Bowl.
Ryans, who spent six years with the 49ers, including two as defensive coordinator, was deeply invested in their playoff journey. He was particularly distraught when the Kansas City Chiefs scored the game-winning touchdown in overtime, falling to the floor in disbelief.
Ryans felt the 49ers played an excellent game against the top quarterback in the league, Patrick Mahomes, and it was unfortunate to see them lose in such a way.
Ryans’ reaction is understandable given his close relationship with the players on the 49ers’ defense. The team has struggled to replace Ryans, with his successor, Steve Wilks, lasting only a year. The 49ers will be looking for a better fit in their next defensive coordinator.
