Brock Purdy excited but no sure thing start 49ers’ visit to Seattle
SANTA CLARA — For Brock Purdy’s next heroic feat, he must overcome a sore body and win at the NFL’s ultimate amphitheater in Seattle, a historically cruel place for 49ers quarterbacks.
If Purdy can not play, Josh Johnson would become the 49ers’ fourth starting quarterback this season, and, either way, Shanahan will have a fourth different quarterback in six seasons going to Seattle. These 49ers enter on a six-game win streak, and a victory would clinch the NFC West. The fading Seahawks have lost three of their past four.
Purdy is coming with a playoff contender. The 49ers have been to the playoffs six times since 2002, and that accounts for three of the franchise’s five wins in Seattle.
