NOTES AND QUOTES for a Tuesday in the Napa Valley:

Cornerback Marquis Hundley, a tryout player from the University of Arizona, intercepted a pass in a Chicago Bears rookie minicamp in Lake Forest, Ill., over the weekend.

The Chicago Sun-Times reported that, “Hundley, a cornerback from Arizona in on a tryout, made a great break on a pass by C.J. Bacher to make an interception. He showed a real burst of speed. He has good size and could be in the mix if the Bears work to sign any tryout players.”

Hundley, a Napa High School graduate, went undrafted after a senior year in which he tied for the team lead with four interceptions as Arizona ended its season by winning the Pioneer Las Vegas Bowl. He had 59 total tackles with seven pass breakups and a forced fumble.

He had offseason surgery on his knee, but still worked out for NFL scouts from New England, Carolina and Buffalo last month at Arizona.

Hundley also played at Santa Rosa Junior College, where he was an all-Northern California Conference player.

The Bears had 43 players in for the camp, a series of non-contact practices.
