Brock Purdy overcomes two INTs, leads 49ers' GW drive in postseason return to Philadelphia
Our Summary
Brock Purdy led the San Francisco 49ers to a 23-19 win over the Philadelphia Eagles in a wild-card playoff game, overcoming two interceptions and a fourth-quarter deficit. Purdy completed 18 of 31 passes for 262 yards, including a game-winning touchdown to Christian McCaffrey. The victory comes nearly three years after Purdy's torn UCL in the 2022 NFC Championship Game against the Eagles. Despite losing tight end George Kittle to a torn Achilles during the game, the 49ers secured their spot in the Divisional Round against the Seattle Seahawks. Purdy, who has battled injuries throughout the season, has led the 49ers to six consecutive wins before a Week 18 loss to the Seahawks. The 49ers now face the top-seeded Seahawks, aiming to advance further in the playoffs.
