Kevin Givens has stepped up significantly for the 49ers following injuries to key players, particularly defensive tackle Javon Hargrave. A 2019 undrafted free agent, Givens has made the most of his opportunities, playing a season-high 55 percent of the defensive snaps in Week 4. He has recorded 3.5 sacks, five quarterback hits, and five quarterback pressures, showcasing his ability to contribute as both a backup and a potential starter. Givens' performance indicates he may be deserving of a more prominent role moving forward.
