Fumble Recoveries

"T.J. Watt & Samson Ekubam: 4 Myles Garrett: 3 Ryan Anderson, Derek Barnett, Jordan Willis: 2"

This statistic didn’t have much difference among the players, so only the players with 2 or above fumble recoveries were listed. As I mentioned before, you’re going to see T.J. Watt’s name across this comparison at the top a bunch.

One interesting thing I learned from this comparison was how productive Samson Ebukam has been for the Los Angeles Rams. In a defense that is so star-studded with guys like Jalen Ramsey and Aaron Donald, his production goes unnoticed.

I have yet to watch any of Samson Ebukam’s recent film, but I could imagine that he is a guy who has gone pretty underrated so far in his NFL career when looking at his production.

The former fourth-round pick by the Los Angeles Rams has had himself a pretty successful career so far in the NFL. Now on a 2 year, 12 million dollar contract with the San Francisco 49ers, he will have a chance to make his name more known, now that he is out of the shadow of Jalen Ramsey and Aaron Donald.

For those draft nerds out there, all of the guys on this list were top 100 draft picks, with the exception of Samson Ebukam.
