Rookie quarterback Brock Purdy threw a pair of touchdown passes to George Kittle and the 49ers won their first NFC West title since 2019, beating the Seahawks 21-13 on Thursday night.
SEATTLE (AP) Tyler Lockett broke a bone in his hand in the fourth quarter of Seattle’s loss to the San Francisco 49ers on Thursday night, another blow for the struggling Seahawks. The wide receiver got hurt on Seattle’s final possession. Lockett was hit hard and appeared to fall awkwardly on an incomplete pass with 3:47 remaining. Seattle scored a touchdown but lost 21-13 to the 49ers, its fourth defeat in five games.
SEATTLE Rookie quarterback Brock Purdy never doubted he’d take the field for the 49ers with a chance at winning a division title.
But how long Purdy would be able to play through his oblique injury lingered all night in the mind of San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan.
