With the New York Giants facing the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, here are some of the numbers that matter heading into the 1 p.m. ET matchup.

From NextGenStats

  • Christian McCaffrey has accounted for 48.2% of the 49ers scrimmage touches this season. That is the highest percentage by any player in the NFL in 2025 and most by a player since Josh Jacobs (49.9) and Derrick Henry (49.5) in 2022.
  • San Francisco left tackle Trent Williams has allowed 36 pressures across his 320 pass blocking snaps for an 11.3% pressure rate, the 10th-highest among left tackles this season (min. 100 pass blocks) and his highest in a season since at least 2018. He has not previously allowed a pressure rate above 8.4% in any season as a member of the 49ers. Williams is expected to face a rotation of Kayvon Thibodeaux, Brian Burns, and Abdul Carter, all of whom have lined up on the right edge on between 32% and 46% of their snaps. All three edge rushers have recorded 25 or more pressures this season, making them the only edge rush teammate trio in the league to reach that mark.
  • Jaxson Dart has completed 67.8% of his passes for 4 touchdowns, 0 interceptions, and a 101.4 passer rating when not pressured. However, when pressured, he has only completed 46.2% of his passes for 4 touchdowns, 3 interceptions, and a 72.4 passer rating. The 49ers have pressured opposing quarterbacks on only 25.9% of dropbacks, the lowest rate in the NFL.
  • Abdul Carter has generated 33 pressures and 19 quick pressures (under 2.5 seconds) across his 232 pass rushes, with both pressure totals leading the Giants as well as all NFL rookies. His 8.2% quick pressure rate is the 5th-highest by any defender with at least 100 pass rushes. In Week 8, Carter played 82.5% of the Giants’ defensive snaps, his highest snap share of the season. He exceeded the snap shares
