That's because Bosa is constantly being choked.

right now his playing w/instinct.. you can tell he's only being used in a special situation.. I hope our HC wont try and coach him up and tell him to train w/Kinlaw and AA.

dude hes doing fine
Most sacks by rookies this season:
— NFL Rookie Watch (@NFLRookieWatxh) November 15, 2022
Aidan Hutchinson 5.5
Drake Jackson 3.0
Jaquan Brisker 3.0
Sam Williams 3.0

Drake Jackson with his third batted ball of the season
— Jordan Elliott (@splash_cousin) November 15, 2022
That's tied for 3rd most in the NFL this season
One thing that is consistent with Jackson on film, he's always making an effort to get his hands up in the throwing lane

He is doing good, but I want and believe he can take it to another level. I believe he can be a 4 down player.
Aldon Smith wasn't a 4 down player until his 2nd year and with our depth it's better to rotate guys frequently to keep guys fresh

I realize a player doesn't need to have sacks to make a difference but I got a feeling this guy is being held back by the coaches not letting him on the field enough.

Did this guy play yesterday? Didn't see his number or hear his name at all.

Try watching the game next time. The announcers absolutely brought him up after a tipped pass.

Somethin tells me if this dude was put on the field more our pass rush would see a big improvement. I highly doubt dudes like Jordan Willis and omenehiu are better pass rushers than a guy who was one of the top rated DEs in the last draft

Hutchinson has played 652 snaps. Jackson - 250. They have nearly identical pass rush ratings from PFF. Neither has hit their projected level in PR but Drake is staying with the next Superman.
