Naquan Jones

So defensive tackle, the 49ers do have some guys that can elevate from the practice squad.

And so far, Naquan Jones, Sebastian Valdez, Osa Digizua, they've been playing well.

But Grayson Halton just had the game of his life.

He just was really tearing it up.

He's not getting Sebastian Valdez's roster active spot as far as I'm concerned, the way that guy's played.

Naquan Jones, maybe he's taking his spot.

I think you can still use more.

I know that Khalil Mack, we've talked about Khalil.

I think they don't just have an above average li- I think they have a top 10 defensive line in football right now.

Also, I think it's, like, if you bring C.J. West back for, like, Naquan Jones, like, later in the year, like, let him get healthy to, like, reprise that role where he's fresh.

Yeah.

I think that's a little additive.

Uh, Sebastian Valdez has been part of this thing.

Uh, Naquan Jones has been part of this thing.

I mean, they've got some, some guys that people are looking around going, "Who are these guys?" And they're playing really, really well.

well.Yeah, you touched on a couple things I wanted to ask about.

I'll, I'll let you keep going.

I was just gonna say, like sticking to snap counts, last week, Oso Digizuwa played 44 snaps, Grayson Helten and Sebastian Valdez played 32 snaps, Naquan Jones, who's effectively just like a nose tackle at this point, played 12 snaps.

So they're putting a lot of stress on Oso Digizuwa, and thankfully Seattle threw the ball a ton, so like he got into a situation where he could only rush the passer or like where he was predominantly rushing the passer.

But that's not real life or realistically, especially these next two weeks.

The proof is in the pudding.

My favorite kind of microcosm of Raheem Morris' tenure, it's only been five games so far, You have Naquan Jones, Sebastian Valdez, Kareem.

Khalid Kareem, yeah.

Khalid Kareem and Oakbow out there, and you get a sack on third down.

Uh, Sebastian Valdez has been part of this thing.

Uh, Naquan Jones has been part of this thing.

I mean, they've got some, some guys that people are looking around going, "Who are these guys?" And they're playing really, really well.

Yeah, you touched on a couple things I wanted to ask about.
