He has also appeared in four postseason contests (three starts) and tallied 11 tackles, one pass defensed and one interception.”

49ers overreactions: Are Purdy’s overthrows vs. Rams cause for concern?
“Hargrave had 19 sacks in his first five years before getting 18.5 over the past two seasons. He was part of a Philadelphia Eagles defensive line that featured four members with 11 or more sacks. Armstead is a very good all-around player. But aside from his 10-sack season of 2019, he has never put up huge sack numbers. The 49ers are relying on Drake Jackson to develop into a consistent pass-rusher and provide a lift on the other side of Bosa.”
