49ers roster moves: CB Anthony Brown re-signed, CB Tre Swilling waived
The San Francisco 49ers announced they have re-signed cornerback Anthony Brown to a one-year deal. To make room on the roster, the team waived cornerback Tre Swilling.
The Niners released Brown on Thursday, just hours ahead of their game against the New York Giants. That move came just days after initially signing Brown to the 53-man roster.
The 49ers will likely try to re-sign Swilling to the practice squad. On Thursday, the cornerback was promoted from the practice squad to the active roster. He played 19 snaps on special teams against the
Brock Purdy on pace to be 49ers' first 4,000-yard passer since Jeff Garcia
Since the turn of the century, there have been 179 single-season quarterback performances of at least 4,000 yards. The 49ers, as fans well know, have but one—Jeff Garcia's impressive but futile 4,278 yard effort in a 2000 season that saw SF go just 6-10. Since then, that franchise high-water mark has gone untouched. There have been a few other contenders to rally around in that span—Alex Smith, Colin Kaepernick, and Jimmy Garoppolo, but each have fallen short of that historic mark.
Brock Purdy, though, will at least threaten to meet that lofty expectation. With his latest 310-yard, two-touchdown performance, Purdy finds himself on pace for a 4,171-yard season in 2023. His key trait has been his efficiency; so far this year, he's completed 67.0% of his passes, and
Kyle Shanahan even more impressed with Brock Purdy after 49ers-Giants film review
After the San Francisco 49ers' 30-12 victory over the New York Giants on Thursday night, head coach Kyle Shanahan expressed how happy he was with his second-year quarterback, Brock Purdy, despite some miscues.
"It definitely wasn't his best game, but I think Brock played well," Shanahan said. "I mean, he definitely wasn't perfect. Missed a couple of throws, but he also made a couple of plays that I didn't think were there. So I was definitely happy with him."
The next day, after reviewing what his team did against their Week 3 opponent, the coach was even more impressed with his quarterback.
"After watching the film, I was even more impressed than I saw last night after the game," Shanahan said Friday afternoon via a conference call. "We missed a

The San Francisco 49ers dominated the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, winning 35-16 to improve to 4-0 on the season, remaining one of two undefeated teams in the NFL alongside the Philadelphia Eagles.
In the win, the 49ers dominated offensively, scoring touchdowns on five of their six drives, with the spotlight on Christian McCaffrey with a four-touchdown performance, highlighting his impact on the San Francisco offense.
However, there was one performance that broke records and it came from the quarterback position, as Brock Purdy broke the 49ers single-game completion percentage record against the Cardinals with his 20/21, 283-yard performance.
Purdy's 95.2% completion rate tops Steve Young's 90% completion rate in an 18/20 performance back in
