The 49ers had a few new faces step up in their 23-17 NFC Wild Card Game win over the Cowboys on Sunday at AT&T Stadium.
With Nick Bosa and Fred Warner leaving the game early due to injuries, lesser known names popped on the defensive side of the stat sheet. Bosa exited the game prior to halftime to be evaluated for a concussion and did not return, while Warner injured his ankle a few minutes into the fourth quarter.
The 49ers' defense still managed to record an impressive 31 total quarterback pressures with Charles Omenihu leading the group with six total pressures, followed by Samson Ebukam with four. Arden Key, D.J. Jones and Arik Armstead recorded three pressures each.
