VIDEO: Mike Shanahan Presenting NFC Championship Trophy to His Son Kyle is Awesome
Kyle Shanahan is in his third year as head coach of the San Francisco 49ers ,and now has his team in the Super Bowl after a dominant win over the Green Bay Packers. That meant a celebratory trophy ceremony following the win. The NFL upped the emotional impact by having Mike Shanahan present the NFC Championship to his son.
This was an awesome moment, and it was great to see the NFL get Mike on the field to pass the trophy to his son. The elder Shanahan hasn't coached in the NFL since 2013, but seems to be enjoying seeing his son achieve such great success in the league.
Mike won three Super Bowls throughout his NFL coaching career as both a head man and coordinator, and Kyle is still seeking his first, after coming so close with the Atlanta Falcons as an offensive coordinator. If he does end up winning, we may get another heartfelt moment between father and son.
