Patrick Willis is enjoying watching his former squad. The San Francisco 49ers currently lead the favored Los Angeles Rams 17-6 at SoFi Stadium and have been doing it with defense. Rams quarterback Jared Goff has thrown two interceptions in the game, one hauled in by cornerback Richard Sherman and the other by defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw.
Willis posted the following via Twitter during the game, noting No. 99, which belongs to the rookie, Kinlaw. The tweet came after the defensive tackle's interception.

The 7-3 Rams currently sit in first place within the NFC West while the 4-6 49ers are in last place. An upset victory would put San Francisco one game behind the Arizona Cardinals, who lost today to the New England Patriots, for third place within the division.
Javon Kinlaw! The rookie takes it all the way for a pick-6! #FTTB
