DeForest Buckner records 2.5 sacks: Roundup of NFL players with Oregon ties

San Francisco 49ers defensive lineman DeForest Buckner hadn't posted many sacks in his first two seasons.

The former Oregon Ducks star may change that sack statistic this season. Buckner posted 2.5 sacks during the 49ers 24-16 loss to the Minnesota Vikings Sunday.

Here's one of Buckner's sacks.

Buckner's 2.5 sacks Sunday nearly equaled his total number of sacks (three) during the 2016 season. He also added seven combined tackles that included three solo tackles. Buckner was one of the number of NFL players with ties to Oregon who played well during Week 1.
