Seattle Seahawks defensive end Michael Bennett may be a fan of San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, but that doesn't mean everything he has to say about his team's division rival is positive.
The announced paid attendance for Sunday's game between the Seahawks and 49ers at Levi's Stadium was 70,134. However, from the looks of the nearly empty venue from week to week, it would appear that most fans would rather stay at home than venture out to watch a one-win team.
"There might not be any fans in the stadium, which there wasn't a lot of fans in the stadium," Bennett said via Gregg Bell of The News Tribune. "I looked online you could've gotten a ticket for $17, and you can't get a ticket for $17 to my house. But, that's a really good team. They're a really good team. We played against them, and so is Arizona. Every time we play, it's a hard game."

Bennett isn't wrong about the ticket prices. Third-party tickets to 49ers games remain among the most inexpensive in the NFL. Tickets for their next home game, a December 17 matchup against the Tennessee Titans, can be had for as low as $21 via our ticket partner, SeatGeek. Are you looking to watch the 49ers' December 24 home matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars? Tickets for that game are as low as $16.
