The undefeated San Francisco 49ers (6-0) defeated the Washington Commanders 23-17 during their Week 6 Monday Night Football matchup at Levi’s Stadium, extending their winning streak to six games. Quarterback Brock Purdy led the 49ers' offense with 264 passing yards and a touchdown. During the contest, Purdy officially became the highest-rated passer in NFL history, surpassing Lamar Jackson’s mark after reaching 1,500 career pass attempts with a career passer rating of 105.4. Christian McCaffrey contributed two rushing touchdowns, helping San Francisco build an early 20-point lead. Purdy also connected with George Kittle for a touchdown during the game. While Washington quarterback Jayden Daniels attempted a second-half rally with two touchdown passes and recorded 300 passing yards, the 49ers' defense secured the win. The defense maintained the lead through critical plays, including a fourth-down pass breakup by Malik Mustapha and a game-ending sack on Daniels by Keion White and Ogbo Okoronkwo. The loss leaves the Commanders with a 1-4-1 record. The game was heavily impacted by injuries. Washington wide receiver Terry McLaurin was carted off the field with a torn patellar tendon, which is expected to end his season. For the 49ers, wide receiver Mike Evans exited due to Achilles tendinitis; he was unavailable for practice on Wednesday, leaving his status for the upcoming game against the Atlanta Falcons uncertain. The 49ers' receiving corps continues to face depth challenges with Deebo Samuel Jr., Christian Kirk, and Demarcus Robinson also managing injuries. The team is currently awaiting the return of Christian Kirk from a calf injury.
