Matt Barrows of The Sacramento Bee reports that although the Browns did reach out the 49ers regarding a trade for HC Jim Harbaugh, sources have informed him that โthe offer was rebuffed and the conversation never developed from there.โ
According to Barrowsโ source, the Browns actually called San Francisco to inquire about 49ers assistant coaches Greg Roman and Jim Tomsula, and it was shortly after that Jim Harbaughโs name also came up.
Barrows adds that former Browns CEO Joe Banner them brought up the compensation they were willing to offer in return for Harbaugh.
49ers owner Jed York mentioned that the trade talks between the two sides didnโt get very far at all.
โNot far at all,โ York said, via The Sacramento Bee. โWe had no interest in entering those discussions.โ
York also said that he doesnโt expect contract talks with Harbaugh to take place until after the NFL Draft in May, but added that he is open to speaking with Harbaughโs representatives at any point.
