The Arizona Cardinals currently hold a 38-7 lead over the San Francisco 49ers. QB Colin Kaepernick is having the first four-interception game of his career, including two returned for touchdowns during the 49ers' first two drives today.
FS Tyrann Mathieu (2), CB Justin Bethel (1), and CB Jerraud Powers (1) are responsible for the Cardinals' interceptions today.
Kaepernick had a three-interception game last season against the Chicago Bears. He is also responsible for the 49ers' only touchdown of the game where he had a 12-yard run into the end zone.
Kaepernick is the first 49ers quarterback to throw four interceptions in a game since Trent Dilfer did it against the Carolina Panthers in 2007.

Packers' Christian Watson: 49ers QB Trey Lance has "everything that it takes"
Trey Lance entered this past season as the starting quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers. However, a season-ending ankle injury during Week 2 ended his 2022 campaign, opening the door for Jimmy Garoppolo and, eventually, rookie Brock Purdy.

Had Purdy not suffered a tear of the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) in his right elbow in the NFC Championship Game against the Philadelphia Eagles, he would likely be the undisputed Week 1 starter for the 2023 season. Of course, the 49ers
49ers considered trading Mike McGlinchey last year
Mike McGlinchey received a life-changing payday, signing a five-year, $87.5 million deal with the Denver Broncos. The offensive tackle has known for a while that he would not return to the San Francisco 49ers, the only NFL team he has played for and the one that made him the No. 9 overall pick in 2018.
General manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan made it clear to McGlinchey that he was likely playing his final months for the team. There was too much money invested in other spots, and the 49ers knew they couldn't compete with other interested teams.

Purdy is recovering from surgery to repair the tear of the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) in his right elbow, an injury sustained in the NFC Championship Game against the Philadelphia Eagles. He hasn't been seen since the surgery, with his last public appearance taking place In Arizona, during the week leading to the Super Bowl.
One fan spotted Purdy, though, getting a photo with the 49ers quarterback (h/t TheSFNiners). As expected, Purdy is wearing a massive brace on his throwing arm,
