Watch: Fred Warner forces first turnover of season with punch vs. Jets' Breece Hall
After a 3-and-out on offense to start the regular season, the San Francisco 49ers leaned on their defense to provide a spark on Monday Night Football against the New York Jets. The 49ers captain delivered.
It didn't take long for Fred Warner to make an impact against the Jets. After Aaron Rodgers flipped a short pass to running back Breece Hall, Warner came flying in to punch the ball out of the former Iowa State rusher's hands. Following Warner's punch, new 49er defensive tackle Maliek Collins pounced on the forced fumble to secure the turnover.
