CNN —The San Francisco 49ers entered Thursday Night Football against division rivals the Seattle Seahawks needing a win after a stunning home loss to the Arizona Cardinals last time out.
A nine-yard pass from Brock Purdy to George Kittle and a six-yard run from Kyle Juszczyk meant San Francisco remained in front of whatever comeback Seattle attempted to mount.
However, San Francisco didn’t miss a beat on the ground as rookie Isaac Guerendo stepped in, carrying the ball 10 times for 99 yards.
John Froschauer/APThe dual-threat offensive weapon, known for his receiving and rushing abilities, scored on a 76-yard touchdown catch midway through the second quarter.
And afterwards, Samuel spoke about the importance of Thursday’s win as San Francisco improved to 3-3.
