49ers lose linebacker Tatum Bethune for playoffs after groin injury vs. Seahawks
The San Francisco 49ers received more bad injury news on Monday before their playoff matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Seattle's defense held San Francisco to just 173 total yards, the lowest total in nine seasons under Kyle Shanahan, in large part because of their ability to limit explosive plays. 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy didn't attempt a pass of 20 yards or more and completed just four passes anywhere from 10-19 yards.
The 49ers lost another linebacker and could be down two more. Meanwhile, Trent Williams' and Ricky Pearsall's statuses are to be determined.
