Individual Player Records Broken

Quarterback Brock Purdy delivered another stellar performance by completing 19 of 30 passes for 218 yards and two touchdowns. He joined Frankie Albert as the only quarterbacks in franchise history to open a season with four straight games featuring multiple touchdowns and a 100-plus passer rating.

Tight end George Kittle also made history by catching a 56-yard touchdown pass, bringing his career total to 56 scores. This reception officially broke Vernon Davis’s franchise record for the most touchdown catches by a tight end.

Running back Christian McCaffrey added 70 total yards and a rushing touchdown, marking his fourth score of the season. With this yardage, McCaffrey became just the fourth player in NFL history to record at least 6,000 yards from scrimmage with two separate franchises.

Wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. contributed heavily with five receptions, a receiving touchdown, and 44 rushing yards. On the defensive side, linebacker Dre Greenlaw anchored the unit with 12 tackles and a forced fumble to seal the 24-14 victory.
