San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan is seeking to acquire a wide receiver before the NFL trade deadline, with the coach known to favor a specific type of player for his offensive scheme, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.
The Chronicle's Eric Branch reported Thursday that Shanahan has a defined preference at the position. The report also referenced an Associated Press photograph from October 25 in Minneapolis showing a player identified as Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jauan Jennings making a catch against the Indianapolis Colts.
