The concerns about Reuben Foster’s shoulder are old news. Now, he is a walking freight train. He was all over the field in the first half, but there were two tackles that were notable from Sunday night. The first was the first play from scrimmage. Roll it:

Keep an eye on where he was and where he ended up. Something tells me that’s not going to be the first time we see him go Metal Gear on someone like that.
Here’s the second play, a nice de-cleat of Laquon Treadwell:

I said a few weeks ago I was campaigning for Reuben Foster to be nicknamed The Waterboy and these two clips certainly help my cause. He hasn’t been doing nothing but sniffing the ball and impressing since he set foot on the field.
Oh and the best part about all of this? Watching these knowing the 49ers traded with a certain NFC West rival to be able to acquire him.
Thanks for giving us The Waterboy.
