49ers

New 49ers HC Chip Kelly told reporters on Thursday that every time he has spoken with QB Colin Kaepernick, there has never been any indication that he doesn’t want to be back in San Francisco.

“He wants to be here,” said Kelly, via Matt Maiocco of CSN Bay Area. “He’s never expressed to me that he doesn’t want to be here. He expressed to me that he was excited about getting healthy and getting going. And we’re excited about him getting healthy and getting going.”

Kelly added that he’s excited to work with Kaepernick.

“I don’t know what the narrative is that, ‘Is he on the team? Is he not on the team?’” Kelly said. “It’s never been a question. I’m excited to work with Colin. I’ve never thought that, ‘Hey, I’m going to go to San Francisco and he’s not going to be there.’ I don’t know why everybody else looks at it that way, either.”

Buccaneers

Ravens

• Harbaugh added the tight end position is now a priority now after Crockett Gillmore underwent surgery on both shoulders and Nick Boyle has been suspended 10 games. (Jamison Hensley)
