You couldn't tell from his final stat line, but Purdy struggled at the onset of Sunday's contest and finished the first quarter with negative net yards. The sophomore starter showed tremendous poise in a hostile road environment when he came out in the second quarter and rattled off six consecutive touchdown drives, four of which he ended with a scoring toss. Purdy has now thrown 11 touchdowns with just one turnover in four games since the 49ers' Week 9 bye. The lone interception came Week 12 against the Seahawks, who Purdy will face in a rematch next Sunday at Levi's Stadium.

You couldn't tell from his final stat line, but Purdy struggled at the onset of Sunday's contest and finished the first quarter with negative net yards. The sophomore starter showed tremendous poise in a hostile road environment when he came out in the second quarter and rattled off six consecutive touchdown drives, four of which he ended with a scoring toss. Purdy has now thrown 11 touchdowns with just one turnover in four games since the 49ers' Week 9 bye. The lone interception came Week 12 against the Seahawks, who Purdy will face in a rematch next Sunday at Levi's Stadium.
Purdy's only notable miscue from another solid performance came on his second attempt of the second half when he threw an interception that was taken back for Seattle's only touchdown of the evening. The 23-year-old was not fazed by his -- at the time -- potentially game-altering mistake, responding with a 28-yard touchdown pass to Brandon Aiyuk later in the half that put the Seahawks away for good. Purdy finished with an efficient passing performance that lacked the flash of some of his recent fantasy lines. The sophomore starter is still producing at a high level with 838 passing yards and seven touchdowns while completing 75 percent of his passes in three outings since returning from the bye. Purdy will both physically and mentally prepare for next week's road tilt against the Eagles, which will be the first time the quarterback will face Philadelphia since severely injuring his elbow and taking a loss in last year's NFC Championship Game.
Purdy threw a 13-yard touchdown pass to Brandon Aiyuk in the first quarter, added a 66-yard touchdown to George Kittle in the third and rounded out the scoring with a 22-yard connection to Kyle Juszczyk in the fourth. Christian McCaffrey had his 17-game touchdown streak snapped, but Deebo Samuel (shoulder) made his first appearance since Week 6 and added a 23-yard rushing touchdown to Purdy's trio of passing scores. After snapping a three-game losing streak Sunday in Jacksonville, Purdy will bring a 15:5 TD:INT into San Francisco's Week 11 home game against the Buccaneers.
Purdy's yardage total was a byproduct of necessity, as the 49ers surprisingly found themselves down for the overwhelming majority of the contest. The second-year signal-caller also threw multiple interceptions for the second consecutive game, bringing his total in that category to five over the last three contests. Purdy was presumably healthy after clearing concussion protocol Saturday, and he'll now have additional down time during a Week 9 bye before likely getting Deebo Samuel (shoulder) back as a target in a Week 10 road battle against the Jaguars.
Although Purdy originally drew a questionable designation ahead of Sunday's game, this was the expected outcome. The second-year quarterback entered protocol following Monday's loss to the Vikings. Rapid progress throughout the week, beginning with a return to practice as a limited participant Thursday, ultimately led to his availability. Barring any setbacks, he should take on his usual role under center for the 49ers.
Purdy was his typical efficient self in Week 7, completing 21 of 30 passes for 272 yards and one touchdown, but he also threw a pair of interceptions, the last of which sealed the defeat for the 49ers. He then began to experience concussion symptoms on the flight back to San Francisco, clouding his status on a short week to prepare for Sunday's matchup with the Bengals. Shanahan told Matt Barrows of The Athletic that backup QB Sam Darnold will handle the first-team reps Wednesday, but Purdy will take part in some of the walkthrough.
