San Francisco 49ers at Washington Redskins Game Notes Sunday, October 15, 2017 Beathard’s First Impression Entering the game in the 2nd qtr., QB C.J. Beathard completed 19 of 36 passing atts. for 245 yds. and 1 TD. His first career TD pass came on a 45-yd. pass to WR Aldrick Robinson. Hyde Punches It In Twice On the final play in the first half, RB Carlos Hyde punched in a 1-yd. TD run. Hyde also registered a second 1-yd. TD run in the 3rd qtr. Hyde now has 4 rushing TDs on the season and 16 for his career. Hyde has now registered 2-or-more rushing TDs in a single game twice this season [vs. LAR (9/21/17 – 2 TDs)] and five times in his career. You Can Call Me Al WR Aldrick Robinson registered a season-long 45-yd. TD recept. from QB C.J. Beathard on the day. It marked his first TD recept. since 12/4/16 vs. KC (1 TD) as a member of the Atlanta Falcons. Armstrong Strips It, Ward Scoops It LB Ray-Ray Armstrong forced a Redskins TE Vernon Davis fumble, marking his 2nd career FF and first since 12/28/14 at Den. The fumble was scooped up by DB Jimmie Ward, who returned it 43 yds. It marked Ward’s first FR of his career, and the longest fumble return by the 49ers since LB Dan Skuta at Jax. (10/27/13 – 47 yds.). The play led to RB Carlos Hyde’s TD run. Robinson Snags A Deep Ball CB Rashard Robinson intercepted Redskins QB Kirk Cousins, marking his 2nd career INT. K’Waun Gets Forceful CB K’Waun Williams registered the second FF of the season and 5th of his career. He has now registered 1 FF in consecutive games for the first time in his career. Williams became the first member of the 49ers to register at least 1 FF in consecutive games since S Nate Clements in 2010 [vs. Oak. (10/17/10) & at Car. (10/24/10)]. Thomas The Tank Engine DL Solomon Thomas sacked Cousins for a loss of 5 yds. He now has 2.0 sacks on the season. Gould Extends His Record K Robbie Gould connected on his first FGA of the game from 52 yds. He made each of his first 15 FGAs on the season, setting the franchise record for consecutive FGM to begin a season. Gould’s 52-yd. FG marked his longest made FG since connecting on a 55-yd. FG vs. Min. (11/1/15), as a member of the Chicago Bears. Taylor Made Return WR Trent Taylor returned his only punt of the game 39 yds. It marked a career long and the longest punt return by a member of the 49ers since RB LaMichael James at Was. (11/25/13 – 40-yd. return). .
