SANTA CLARA – Quinton Dial spoke in the 49ers’ auditorium Monday afternoon. Here are selected quotes.
Q: You’re running with the first-team defense this year. Is that a good opportunity for you?
DIAL: Yeah it’s a great opportunity. I don’t think it’s too much of a transition for me because starting with the last eight or nine games (last season) I’ve been running with the guys and I know what they expect from me. I just come to work every day and show them what I’ve got.
Q: Do you go back and look at a lot of the things that made Ray McDonald successful in that spot?
