Brock Purdy Leads 49ers to 24-14 Victory over Denver Broncos

On Sunday, the San Francisco 49ers defeated the Denver Broncos 24-14, remaining undefeated at 4-0 behind tight end George Kittle's 56-yard touchdown catch-and-run in the fourth quarter.
Momentum shifted in the third quarter after special teams ace Siran Neal forced a fumble by Broncos punt returner Marvin Mims Jr. at the Denver 28-yard line, igniting the 49ers' offensive surge.
Quarterback Brock Purdy finished 19 of 30 for 218 yards with no turnovers, orchestrating three touchdown drives by connecting with wide receiver Deebo Samuel and Kittle for scores.
Broncos quarterback Bo Nix narrowed the gap to 17-14 with a 13-yard touchdown pass to Jaylen Waddle with 4:05 remaining, but San Francisco's defense held firm to secure the victory.
The 49ers will travel north to face the Seattle Seahawks next Sunday, while the Broncos will visit the Los Angeles Chargers, both teams managing roster adjustments after injuries sustained Sunday.
