The 49ers are facing increasing challenges as star running back Christian McCaffrey is sidelined with a shoulder injury, having previously recorded nine carries for 29 yards and five catches for 39 yards in the first half. Tight end Jake Tonges also limped off, leaving the team with further injury woes. The 49ers turned the ball over on downs when Brock Purdy was sacked, giving the Seahawks a short field. However, McCaffrey returned for the second series of the second half, with the 49ers trailing 27-6.
