Samson Ebukam definitely doesn't skip leg day, as you're about to see.
Ebukam, who figures to fill a pass rushing role for the 49ers this season, posted a demonstration of how much he can squat to Instagram on Monday. It's the latest in a number of workout videos Ebukam has shared on Instagram since signing with the 49ers in March after spending the first four seasons of his NFL career with the Rams.
A number of players were impressed with Ebukam's latest video, including teammates George Kittle, Trey Lance, Darrion Daniels, and Jeff Wilson, as well as Colts linebacker Zaire Franklin and Rams linebacker Ogbo Okoronkwo. Each of them left brief comments on the video, with Kittle saying, "Sheeeeeeesh." Check it out below.
The 49ers signed Ebukam to a two-year deal worth $12 million and appear set to let him loose on opposing quarterbacks. Ebukam had 14 sacks in four seasons with the Rams but may be in more of an attack mode with the 49ers.
"The number one thing is, with the Rams, I was kind of reading and things like that," Ebukam said earlier this month. "But over here, it's just attack, don't read. So I just have to flip a 180 real quick and just get on that. Attack, and the people behind me will clean it up."
