49ers training camp: Jim Tomsula talks tempo, field conditions, Darnell Dockett

The San Francisco 49ers head out for their second day of practice Sunday afternoon. Prior to practice, head coach Jim Tomsula led off the media availability. Tomsula spoke in detail about the tempo of the offense. The 49ers have dealt with play clock issues for much of the last decade. Tomsula has a goal of the offensive line getting to the line of scrimmage with 22 seconds on the play clock. On Saturday, they averaged 28 to 32 seconds. Tomsula said on Sunday that as a defensive line guy, as you see the play clock winding down and the team is slow to the line, you are able to get a better jump on the play.
