It’s a two-team race in the NFC West between the San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks. The Niners lead the division at 7-3, with the Seahawks a game back at 6-4.
The two teams meet on Thanksgiving night in Seattle. It’s the first matchup between the two West Coast rivals before a rematch less than three weeks later in San Francisco.
The 49ers have gotten back on track after a three-game skid. They’ve won their last two games behind steadier play of quarterback Brock Purdy and the return of wideout Deebo Samuel.
Defensive end Chase Young has made an immediate impact after joining the team at the trade deadline, but the defense will be without All-Pro safety Talanoa Hufanga, who will miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL.
For the Seahawks, quarterback Geno Smith was knocked out of last week’s game with an elbow injury, but the team thinks he’ll be able to suit up on Thursday.
The 49ers-Seahawks game kicks off in Seattle at 5:20 p.m. PT (8:20 p.m. ET) and will be shown nationally on NBC.
