KJ recaps the first four days of 49ers training camp. Dante Pettis' emergence could shift some roles on offense, Matt Breida needs more carries not less, the defense is collecting a bunch of mini stars and how a Week 1 win at Minnesota will keep the momentum rolling.

KJ hosts solo and spins forward the news of the day: Richard Sherman is officially cleared, collects his $2 million check and will now bring a heightened sense and competitive vibe to training camp. Kyle Shanahan was smart to call out the "expectations" elephant in the room and Jimmy G really could struggle some in training camp -- just as he did with the Patriots.  Please subscribe to the KJ Podcast for two weekly episodes of San Francisco 49ers analysis  Twitter: @Mr_KevinJones
