Rousseau first since '98 with 2+ sacks in first 3 games

Bills linebacker Greg Rousseau has two sacks in each of Buffalo's first three games, making him just the third player since sacks became an official statistic in 1982 to achieve this feat.

Buffalo Bills linebacker Greg Rousseau has joined elite company by recording two sacks in each of the team's first three games this season. The feat makes him just the third player since sacks became an official statistic in 1982 to achieve multiple sacks in the first three games of a season, joining Mark Gastineau (1984 Jets) and Kevin Greene (1998 Panthers).

Rousseau currently leads the NFL with six sacks, eight tackles for loss, and three forced fumbles. While he's currently sixth in Defensive Player of the Year odds at +1500, his early season performance could boost his candidacy. Rousseau can tie Kevin Greene's record of multiple sacks in the first four games with two sacks against the Patriots on Sunday. goldparty.lat
