Defensive lineman Kerry Hyder reached quarterback Daniel Jones during the third quarter of the San Francisco 49ers' 36-9 victory over the New York Giants. After the play, the seventh-year veteran paid tribute to his teammate,
Nick Bosa, who suffered a season-ending ACL injury last weekend.
"I just wanted him to know that we're always thinking about him, and he's always on our minds," Hyder said after the game. "We're playing for him. I know he's watching us, and we wanted to make sure that he saw that we were playing hard and that we love him."
Hyder is one of the many defensive linemen who are stepping up to fill the void after both Bosa and Solomon Thomas (ACL) were lost for the season. Hyder got to Jones once while Dion Jordan brought down the quarterback, too.
The 49ers worked hard while remaining on the East Coast this past week between their two games at MetLife Stadium.
"I feel like, as a group, we always prepare well," Hyder said. "Coach does a great job preparing everyone like they're going to start, so nothing really changed in our preparation. We attack each day, and we try to get better each day. We feel like if we have good practices during the week, that it will carry over to the game."
The 49ers will return to the West Coast to begin preparing for their Week 4 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles and hope their win streak, now at two games, continues.

Rapoport: 49ers send clear message to teams inquiring about Brandon Aiyuk
Ian Rapoport didn't offer much of an update on the ongoing contract negotiations between the San Francisco 49ers and their standout wide receiver, Brandon Aiyuk. However, the NFL insider emphasized one thing: The team is not entertaining trade discussions at this juncture.
Reacting to Aiyuk's decision to unfollow the 49ers on Instagram, Rapoport couldn't help but chuckle at the latest development. This practice has become commonplace among players who are unhappy with their contract situations. Wide receiver Deebo Samuel similarly took this action in 2022 before requesting to be traded just before the draft.
Things have yet to escalate that far with Aiyuk, but Rapoport sees his
7-round mock draft from The Athletic sees 49ers fortifying defense early
Analyst Dane Brugler recently revealed his seven-round mock draft for The Athletic, forecasting all 257 selections in the upcoming 2024 NFL Draft, set to kick off next week.
"Piecing together a mock like this is time consuming, but I enjoy the exercise, because it allows me to focus on each team's needs, organizational trends and prospect-team pairings that make sense based on '30' visits, league buzz and overall interest," Brugler wrote.
Most expect the 49ers to address the trenches early in the draft, and Brugler has the team doing that. It's just not on the offensive side of the football. In fact, Brugler doesn't have San Francisco
