Our Summary
Tashaun Gipson Sr., a veteran safety for the San Francisco 49ers, expressed concern about the team's defensive performance in their win against the Detroit Lions. Gipson believes that the team did not play up to their usual standards and expects them to improve moving forward. The 49ers gave up 442 total yards and 31 points to the Lions, which is not typical for their defense. In the regular season, the 49ers had strong defensive stats, including ranking third in rushing yards allowed and eighth in total yards allowed per game. Gipson, who started all 16 games, had 60 combined tackles and one interception during the regular season. He is in his second season with the 49ers.
