The 49ers came into Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Falcons already fired up as each win from this point on has postseason implications. The team got even more of a spark with one play from Deebo Samuel.
Samuel collided with Falcons cornerback A.J. Terrell during a 21-yard reception in the third quarter and the collsions sent his mouthpiece flying through the air.
“We feed on that big time,” 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk said after the win. “I know personally I do. I saw a lot of flexing out there, and that got me hyped today. It definitely has a trickle-down effect to everybody.”
