Tevin Coleman 'Good To Go' In Super Bowl LIV
The 49ers head coach said the Oak Forest High School alum "worked his tail off" to get healthy for the Super Bowl.
MIAMI — Both the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers are 100% healthy heading into Super Bowl LIV today, Feb. 2, 2020. That means Oak Forest High School alum and Tinley Park native Tevin Coleman will suit up and is expected to play for the 49ers in his second Super Bowl appearance.
49ers Head Coach Kyle Shanahan said Coleman has "worked his tail off to get healthy," according to an NBC Sports Bay Area report. Coleman dislocated his shoulder just two weeks ago during the 49ers' NFC Championship Game win over the Green Bay Packers.
"He's good to go," Shanahan said. "He's confident."
