Overview
- Brock Purdy went 23-of-30 for 295 yards and three touchdowns and added 44 rushing yards, including a career-long 26-yard scramble that kick-started a 95-yard touchdown drive Kyle Shanahan lauded.
- Purdy’s 140.3 passer rating marked his seventh game at 140.0 or higher, tying Kurt Warner for the most such outings by a quarterback in his first four NFL seasons.
- Brandon Aiyuk was placed on the reserve/left the team list and cannot return this season, with Shanahan noting the team has not seen him in a month.
- Ricky Pearsall caught six passes for 96 yards before leaving late; Shanahan said he irritated his previously injured PCL and is set for further imaging.
- While the offense has averaged roughly 31 points per game since Week 11, the defense has yielded 343 rushing yards on 64 carries over the past three games, and one more win would clinch a playoff berth ahead of matchups with the Colts, Bears and Seahawks.
