49ers vs. Seahawks Thursday Night Football scores, live updates: San Francisco, Seattle rebound

The Seattle Seahawks sit at 3-2 in the NFC West and begin this week’s Thursday Night Football matchup with the 2-3 San Francisco 49ers. Seattle is looking to not only secure home turf, but also maintain a division lead over the struggling defending NFC champions. The 49ers lost to the Arizona Cardinals by 13 points last week, and they’ve blown double-digit leads in two of their three losses.

Seattle is coming off a 29-20 loss to the Giants in which a potential game-tying field goal attempt was blocked and returned for a touchdown in the final minute.

The game could see some passing fireworks, with Seattle’s Geno Smith leading the NFL in passing yards and San Francisco’s Brock Purdy tied for fourth. Smith leads the NFL in pass attempts and is fourth in completion percentage.

On the injury front for Seattle, defensive tackle Johnathan Hankins and wide receiver D.K. Metcalf is both dealing with hand injuries, but were full participants in practice this week. For San Francisco, safety Talano Hufanga missed practice with a wrist injury, as did kicker Jake Moody with an ankle injury. The 49ers signed veteran kicker Matthew Wright to fill in.

  • Field goal: The Niners are short in the red zone, but still add to the lead

    The Niners’ red zone issues have been well-known this season, and they’ve come up short, with the 35-year-old field goal being solved by Matthew Wright replacing Jake Moody. They should be up by 16 now, but the Seahawks aren’t exactly threatening.

  • Mason has 65 yards on eight carries tonight.

  • Oh, and Niners running back Jordan Mason went down with an apparent injury after the 14th. With Christian McCaffrey still out, the Niners have rookie Isaac Kerendo and Patrick Taylor Jr. behind him.

  • The Seahawks just can’t put together a good run. They had two first downs on five offensive drives and gave the ball back to the Niners.

  • FIELD GOAL: The Niners gain three more points

    The Seattle defense gets a much-needed stop, but the field position means the Niners are now up 13-0.

    Seahawks returner Laviska Shenold Jr. returns the kickoff to the 30, but the ball comes loose and ends up in the Niners’ hands. It doesn’t bode well for Seattle.

  • Touchdown: Seahawks running back Tebow Samuel

    One swift tackle was all it took to turn a Tebow Samuel catch into a 76-yard touchdown. It’s 10-0 Niners.

  • Now it’s 3-and-out for the Seahawks, and Fred Warner gets the big stop on third down. Outside of the Metcalf play, they averaged 2.1 yards per play.
