Giants find ways to win; Packers are pretenders; Ranking NFL's top 10 teams
Tashaun Gipson Sr. - Racks up nine tackles in Week 6 Gipson had nine tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's 28-14 loss to Atlanta.
Impact Gipson finished one tackle shy of Fred Warner's team-leading total in the Week 6 loss. This was a new season high in tackles for Gipson, who has played at least 98 percent of San Francisco's defensive snaps in every game.

Samson Ebukam - Season-high eight tackles in loss Ebukam totaled eight tackles (five solo), including two tackles for loss, in Sunday's 28-14 loss to Atlanta.
Impact Ebukam was limited in practice by an Achilles injury during the week but managed to suit up and put forth a strong performance in the loss. The 27-year-old pass rusher failed to add to his season total of 3.5 sacks but set a single-game season high in tackles while playing a season-high 81 percent of San Francisco's defensive snaps.

Fred Warner - Season-high 10 tackles in Week 6 Warner had a team-high 10 tackles (eight solo) in Sunday's 28-14 loss to Atlanta.
Impact Warner was among the top healthy regulars on the banged-up 49ers defense, but his solid tackling effort wasn't enough to keep the run-heavy Atlanta offense at bay. Through six games in 2022, Warner has racked up 44 tackles (28 solo), with the 10 against the Falcons representing a new season high.
OCTOBER 17, 2022 ROTOWIRE
Tyrion Davis-Price - No touches in return Davis-Price (ankle) logged one offensive snap and received no touches in Sunday's 28-14 loss to Atlanta.
Impact Davis-Price returned from a three-game layoff just in time to assist a banged up 49ers backfield, but he was essentially deployed as a healthy scratch. Head coach Kyle Shanahan did not turn to his third-round pick from this year's draft despite both Jeff Wilson (7/25/0 and a fumble) and Tevin Coleman (4/3/0) struggling from the opening snap. Perhaps TDP will get a few touches against the Chiefs next Sunday.
