Ten games into the 2020 season, San Francisco 49ers rookie defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw finally has his first sack. He brought down quarterback Taysom Hill in the third quarter of the team's road game against the New Orleans Saints, forcing a punt.
The heavily-favored Saints still lead the 49ers 17-10.
While Kinlaw is probably excited about his first NFL sack, he probably wants the win more than anything else.
"I'm not really worried about sacking the QB," Kinlaw said last month. "I'm just worried about just getting a win, honestly. All that stuff comes a part of playing D-line, and trying to get the quarterback, and things like that. But the main thing is to win."
Here is how a couple of Kinlaw's sidelined teammates reacted to the defender's first career sack.
