Chip Kelly again denies interest in leaving 49ers, returning to college

Chip Kelly 49ers

San Francisco 49ers coach Chip Kelly is still being linked to possible collegiate job openings, but he continues to make it clear he has no intention of leaving the NFL.

Amidst reports that Kelly was likely to go for a college job after the season, the Niners coach denied that in a Thursday press conference.

“Unless the media has an opportunity for me somewhere,” Kelly joked to reporters, via Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle. “I’ll always explore those opportunities.”

“I’m not going anywhere,” he asserted more firmly.

These rumors are pretty much an annual thing with regards to Kelly. It’ll likely remain that way as long as he continues to struggle in the NFL after having had so much success in the college game. That’s especially true with a number of high-profile college coaching positions either open already, such as LSU, or possibly coming open after the season.
