Despite players dropping left and right, the Green Bay Packers are sitting at 6-1 atop the NFC North, and third-year edge rusher Rashan Gary is playing a big part in the team’s success.
Gary had arguably the best game of his career in Sunday’s win over the Washington Football Team, coming up with seven tackles, two sacks, and a forced fumble. His 3.5 sacks this year don’t tell the full story of the impact he’s having defensively, especially as of late.
Pro Football Focus (subscription required) has credited Gary with 35 QB pressures already this season, just 11 away from his total last season.
