Mike Singletary joining Vikings' staff (linebackers coach)

[JonLP24]

Mike Singletary told ESPN 1000 on Tuesday that he is joining the Minnesota Vikings staff, where he will be reunited with former Chicago Bears teammate Leslie Frazier.

"I will be in Minnesota with Les," Singletary told "The Waddle & Silvy Show." "I will be a linebackers coach/assistant head coach."

Singletary was fired as the San Francisco 49ers head coach with one game left in the just-completed regular season.

The Hall of Fame linebacker was fired by San Francisco after two disappointing seasons, including a 5-10 showing this season for a franchise that expected to win the NFC West. Singletary was 18-22 in two-plus seasons.

1. That's cool, he should in the game somehow.

He just wasn't ready for the top spot.

2. Great news

I expect he'll be a headcoach again -- he's smart and he'll continue to grow.
