Singletary pulls out of Baylor consideration

? Mike Singletary is staying with the 49ers for now.

Singletary pulled himself from consideration for the Baylor head coaching opening Thursday. He said he wasn’t offered the job at his alma mater.

“For me, it never got to that point,” said Singletary, who met with Baylor officials for five hours Tuesday.

The Hall of Fame linebacker has stirred interest for head coaching jobs in the NFL the last two years.

“My preference has always been that I wanted to stay in the NFL,” Singletary said.
