Former NFL head coach and TV analyst Dan Reeves will interview with the San Francisco 49ers for their offensive coordinator position, ESPN senior NFL analyst Chris Mortensen confirmed with a team source Friday.
Reeves was set to meet with the 49ers by Saturday, FoxSports.com reported, citing multiple league sources.
Reeves coached the Atlanta Falcons and New York Giants after becoming the youngest coach in NFL history in 1981 with the Denver Broncos, whom he coached for 12 years.
Scott Linehan, who has been hired to run the Detroit Lions' offense, declined a 49ers offer last week for that same position.
Ravens quarterbacks coach Hue Jackson became the sixth candidate to interview for the 49ers job Friday morning, according to several reports.
The 49ers have been looking for an offensive coordinator since coach Mike Singletary fired Mike Martz on Dec. 30.
