49ers QB Brock Purdy, in his first NFL start, made a mistake just moments before taking his first snap Sunday, and he paid the price. Then, he settled down and played better than anyone expected.
“It was an awesome job by Brock pumping him, especially with the guy in his face and taking that hit,” Shanahan said. “It was a huge play for us at the end of the half.”
Rather than settling for a field goal at the end of the half, Shanahan trusted Purdy enough to give him an opportunity at making a big play. The touchdown gave the 49ers a 28-0 lead at halftime.On the first play of the game, Buccaneers safety Keanu Neal came untouched off the front side and delivered a huge hit on Purdy for an apparent sack. “I was in the wrong play, actually, so that was on me,” Purdy said.
