- Brock Purdy delivered a volatile but decisive outing, finishing 18-of-31 for 262 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions.
- All-Pro tight end George Kittle suffered a torn Achilles in the first quarter, forcing the 49ers to adjust their offense on the fly.
- Christian McCaffrey caught two scores, including a 28-yard trick-play touchdown from Jauan Jennings before hauling in the game-winner from Purdy.
