San Francisco 49ers pass rusher Nick Bosa recorded nine regular-season sacks on the way to being named the NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year. He added four more during postseason play.
Grant Cohn of Sports Illustrated posted the following video of each of Bosa's sacks … in slow motion. You can watch it below.
The 49ers made Bosa, a former Buckeye, the No. 2 overall pick in last year's draft. He racked up 47 tackles, two passes defensed, an interception, and a forced fumble to go along with his nine regular-season sacks.
Bosa looks to build upon his impressive rookie campaign, and fine-tune his play.
"My expectations are always high," Bosa told reporters in May. "I set my goals really high, and I've been achieving them. So, I'm just going to keep setting them high, and just keep working my butt off. I know the work that I'm putting in now is going to show up, and I think I'm going to be a much-smarter player next year.
"I'm just going to know how to approach my opponents much better, and I'm not going to waste rushes. I'm not going to make silly mistakes that I made last year, and hopefully enhance my game."

Brandon Aiyuk must really need that new contract. The San Francisco 49ers wide receiver took on an offseason job as an Applebee's employee while awaiting news about his NFL future.
Well, not exactly. It was actually part of the series "Undercover Athlete" from Whistle, promoting the new "Whole Lotta Bacon Burger." Still, it was amusing to see Aiyuk serving customers who couldn't quite place his familiar face at first glance.
