Purdy Returns With Three TDs as 49ers Rout Cardinals 41-22

San Francisco now monitors kicker Eddy Piñeiro’s hamstring after confirming Brock Purdy’s readiness.

Overview

  • Brock Purdy completed 19 of 26 passes for 200 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions in his first game back after six missed contests.
  • Christian McCaffrey produced 81 rushing yards and two rushing scores plus 40 receiving yards and a receiving touchdown.
  • The win moved San Francisco to 7-4 with a decisive road result in Arizona.
  • Kyle Shanahan said the team deferred to Purdy on when he felt ready to return, and reporting indicates the turf toe may not fully settle until offseason rest.
  • Kicker Eddy Piñeiro, 3-for-3 on field goals Sunday and perfect on 22 this season, left with a noticeable limp from a possible hamstring pull that will be evaluated Monday, according to Shanahan.
