He's also going to be challenged more because he HAS that ability to be special. They want him to succeed.

Kyle Shanahan is in full Head Coach mode with this one!

Motivating the young @dmainy_13 while keeping him humble at the same time.

Big things are on the horizon for Dante!#Positivity #Supportive #ConstructiveCriticism #49ers #NB9ers #BrickByBrick⛏️

Only bust your balls when you are the only one calling out his work ethic/drive

I'm just the first. But I'll take the bullets if it means being vindicated in the end. Haha.

We just have different interpretations of what constitutes poor work ethic and drive, By all accounts he's a hard worker and a student of the game

He's just a new generation intellectual player that's athletically gifted and things probably came pretty easy for him. He's just a guy who may need to be constantly challenged on the regular to reach his full potential and stay mentally stimulated.

Kyle Shanahan asked about Dante Pettis. He's said before that he wants Dante to be challenged every day in order to get the best out of him. Also mentioned "size". Pettis gained weight this off season to play through contested situations but that skill is more than strength. pic.twitter.com/Eo3AfFo2ic

They just want Pettis to be as pissed off as Hurd. More intensity.

I think using Sherman to get under Pettis' skin is a sure thing. That guy pissed of several fan bases when he was with Seattle.

I'm sure that was planned...then again, that's sort of who Sherman is too. Could just be a veteran move to call him out and keep him focused and on his toes and motivated.

Looks like Ahkello is primed to give WRs free releases again this year.

I'm not a DB coach, but ffs, I hate that god damn motor technique he uses with absolutely ZERO use of his hands. Why can't he do what Sherman does? Kickstep and punch the s**t out of the WR. Are there any former DBs on here?

Crocker will be on Grant's post-practice Periscope tomorrow if you want to ask him. He's a straight-shooter.
