After intercepting Geno Smith to start the second half, the San Francisco 49ers took over early in the third quarter with prime field position against the Seattle Seahawks.
As the 49ers approached the red zone, a key starter on offense appeared to suffer an injury. While trying to block for Brock Purdy on a scramble, All-Pro fullback Kyle Juszczyk appeared to get hit in the head. Juszczyk exited the game to the sideline and entered the blue medical tent.

Following his trip to the blue medical tent, the Fox broadcast reported Juszczyk was cleared from the concussion protocol.
