ESPN REPORT: Five Reasons Bosa Joins Exclusive NFL Hall Of Fame

December 19, 2023 admin Other Clubs 0

Nick Bosa, the current NFL Defensive Player of the Year, joined an exclusive group of active pass-rushers with his effort in the 49ers’ 45-29 victory over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday at State Farm Stadium.

Bosa’s second-quarter sack of Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray was number 10.5 for the 49ers All-Pro. This is only the fourth active player to record 10 or more sacks in three straight seasons. It is Bosa’s third consecutive season surpassing the 10-sack benchmark.

The only other active players to do so are Myles Garrett of the Cleveland Browns (6 seasons), Haason Reddick of the Philadelphia Eagles (4 seasons), and Micah Parsons of the Dallas Cowboys (3 seasons).

In the 49ers’ victory over Arizona, the defensive end for the 49ers also caused a fumble, making it the eighth time in his NFL career that he has had at least one sack and one forced fumble in the same contest.

Bosa had a sluggish start to the season with just three sacks in the 49ers’ first eight games, following a season in which he led the league in sacks. But in San Francisco’s previous six games, Bosa has been on a roll, recording 7.5 sacks and two forced fumbles during the bye week.

Bosa has been a reliable pressure producer this season; in 14 games, he has accumulated 85 total pressures, which is second in the league only to Parsons’ (89) total.
