DT Zach Sieler

(Head Coach Brian Flores just talked about DE Shaq Lawson not playing in this game. Do you look at this as an elevated opportunity to sort of prove what you can do as an NFL starter?) – “With Shaq and his situation, I think it just – me as an individual and as a team, we’ve got to step up and help fill that role. He’s obviously a great player for us. No matter what, we’ve got to show what we can do, we can do.”

(I wanted to ask you about the 49ers’ running game. They’re really well known with Head Coach Kyle Shanahan for that wide stretch zone. I just wanted to get your take on some of the ways to best kind of defend that powerful running game that they have?) – “Yeah, obviously they motion a lot and guys are moving around. Ultimately, I think the key to us stopping the run game would be everyone on the defense reading their keys, striking their man and doing their job, and not trying to do too much.”

(Just kind of piggybacking on that, you talked about all of the motion they run. They do a lot with their receivers as well. When you guys have contain assignments or edge assignments, how does that change maybe your keys and what you’re taught to do this week against a team like that?) – “I think really it’s just all there to mess with your keys, obviously; but at the end of the day, you’ve got to know your responsibility and don’t let that mess with your eyes or mess with your vision, and just stay on your man.”
