We tested our new podcast capabilities with "The Question Lady" on Tuesday, so today start trudging forward with our new toy. Niners quarterback Shaun Hill was kind enough to be our test subject.
Hill spent four seasons with the Minnesota Vikings from 2002 to '05. His career consisted of two kneel-down snaps at the end of the '05 season finale. He was a free agent after the '05 season and he did not get many phone calls - until the 49ers decided to give him a chance.
This is Hill's eighth season in the NFL, and this is the first time he has entered practices before the opening week of the regular season higher than No. 3 on a depth chart. (Last year, he was the No. 3 behind J.T. O'Sullivan and Alex Smith before it was discovered on the day before the season opener that Smith had a fractured shoulder.)
As always, I'm open to suggestions. Are there any other players on the 49ers you'd like to hear on the podcast?
