49ers convert Seahawks turnover into Elijah Mitchell touchdown reception

The 49ers are back in front of the Seahawks thanks to 2 TD drives in the second half

The San Francisco 49ers have regained control of their NFC Wild-Card game with the Seattle Seahawks.

The Niners scored the first 15 points of the second half to grab a 31-17 lead.

After a long drive to regain the lead, Charles Omenihu stripped Geno Smith.

Nick Bosa recovered.

The Seahawks could not afford a turnover and this one came at the worst possible time.

Brock Purdy led a 7-play, 70-yard drive that finished with the rookie QB finding a wide-open Elijah Mitchell for a 7-yard touchdown.

The Niners went for two and Purdy connected with George Kittle and suddenly the gap was 31-17 early in the fourth quarter.
