This is 12 time Olympic medalist Natalie Coglin.

Wondering who you should root for at the Paris Olympics.

I'm hosting my new favorite Olympian where I will introduce you to

Team USA's brightest stars and the causes they are championing. It's hard to

explain and I don't think I really really talked about this with anybody.

Get ready for the Paris Games by checking out my new favorite Olympian

wherever you listen to podcasts.

Welcome to the 49ers Insider Podcast on NBC Sports Bay Area.com.

Introducing your host, San Francisco 49ers Insider, Matt Mayoko.

All right, I'm joined now by Adam Peters,

vice president of Player Personnel in the 49ers Insider Podcast.

Adam, thank you so much for joining me.

Thanks for having me, Matt.

Your background is you played JC at West Valley.

Yeah. You're a tight end there. Yes. And then you go to

UCLA and position switch? Yeah, I was a defensive end there. I played defensive

in in high school too, so it's pretty used to it and I've always kind of been back and

forth I played both usually if you play both it's it means you're not good enough to

play either but I like both sides of the ball. So I'm wondering does that

background having played both sides of the ball?

Does that help you as a scout seeing the game on on both sides of the ball equally well?

Yeah absolutely I think especially at tight end you learn both the run in the past game, so you learn a lot of things there. I think besides quarterback, it's the hardest position on offense. And then defense, defensive line, you don't see the whole field, but you do get a feel for different types of techniques and a little bit more aggression on the defensive side.
