For the second consecutive week, possession of first place in the NFC West will be on the line in “Thursday Night Football.”
The Rams (3-1) and 49ers (3-1) are tied atop the division with the Seahawks ahead of their matchup at SoFi Stadium on Thursday night.
Los Angeles took down the previously unbeaten Colts with a seven-point victory Sunday. Veteran quarterback Matthew Stafford had a commanding performance, tossing for 375 yards and three touchdowns. Standout receiver Puka Nacua reeled in 13 catches for 170 yards, furthering one of the league’s best connections.
Meanwhile, San Francisco will look to rebound from its first loss of the season, a five-point defeat to the Jaguars. Quarterback Brock Purdy struggled in his return from injury, and Purdy’s status is again up in the air heading into Thursday’s game as he deals with a toe injury. Mac Jones previously started two games under center in Purdy’s absence.
The Rams have won three straight head-to-head meetings over the 49ers.
