Former NFL quarterback Chris Simms revealed that his close friend, San Francisco 49ers<\/a> head coach Kyle Shanahan, almost lost an eye during a horrible car crash he was involved in earlier this month.<\/p>\n

Simms, who is a current NFL<\/a> analyst, made an appearance on “PFT Live” where he explained pictures he received from Shanahan\u2019s wife, Mandy, after the July 14 accident occurred.<\/p>\n

“When you first see it, and it\u2019s fresh, and some of the cuts are still wide open, I mean, it\u2019s jarring,” Simms explained. “It\u2019s jarring.<\/p>\n

“He was this close to maybe losing his right eye.”<\/p>\n

The injuries were quite significant for Shanahan, who is limited to starting training camp with the 49ers, the team announced.<\/p>\n

Shanahan suffered a broken nose, three broken ribs and a broken hand. He also needed over 40 stitches in his face and had a severe concussion after colliding with another SUV by his home in Northern California, per ESPN.<\/a><\/p>\n

“San Francisco 49ers Head Coach Kyle Shanahan was involved in a car accident last week when he suffered non-life threatening injuries. Coach Shanahan will participate in team activities on a limited basis at the start of training camp while he recovers,” the team said in its statement.<\/p>\n

“Coach Shanahan and the 49ers organization would like to sincerely thank all first responders involved for their efforts and care.”<\/p>\n

Simms pointed to his forehead when he said, “The scar is so big right here.”<\/p>\n

“So, all that stuff was just crazy to see,” he added.<\/p>\n

While Shanahan has yet to speak on the crash, Simms did reveal some of what he is feeling at the moment.<\/p>\n

“He was emotional about it because he realized how close it was to being just a complete, you know, utter disaster,” Simms, who mentioned the other driver was a woman, said. “Like, really, it was a disaster anyways. But, when you\u2019re a part of that accident, like I said, he could have lost his right eye. It could have been a lot worse. You know, he\u2019s very concerned about the woman he got in the accident with and how she is and handling that situation. So there\u2019s just a lot there. And I think it was a lot for him to process.”<\/p>\n

Shanahan was spotted at 49ers training camp on Sunday, where his face was masked by a baseball hat and sunglasses.<\/p>\n

GM John Lynch also noted that, “Kyle basically is going to be like in the protocol,” in reference to his concussion. Simms said it is giving him “some issues” he must deal with through the healing process.<\/p>\n

While Shanahan serves his team on a limited basis, Chris Foerster, the 49ers\u2019 assistant head coach, is acting in his place.<\/p>\n

The 49ers open the season against the Los Angeles Rams<\/a> on Sept. 10 in the first-ever game played in Australia.<\/p>\n
