The San Francisco 49ers, led by their second-year quarterback Brock Purdy, successfully defeated the New York Giants in their week 3 matchup on Thursday night. Purdy and the Niners dominated the Giants throughout the game and secured the victory. During the game, the 49ers’ offensive tackle Trent Williams threw a vicious punch at the Giants defensive lineman A’Shawn Robinson in a heated incident.
During the final seconds of the second quarter, the 49ers were leading 17-6 and were trying to run out the clock by taking a knee. However, the Giants defensive lineman jumped when the Niners center snapped the ball, leading to tempers flaring between both teams’ linemen. Especially, the Niners OT Trent Williams got into a heated fight with A’Shawn Robinson.
During the scuffle, Williams threw a vicious punch at the Giants defensive lineman after shoving him. The referees were all over the fight and multiple flags were thrown, but somehow Williams escaped an ejection, which is the standard penalty for a player throwing a punch. Instead, both Williams and Robinson were issued off-setting penalties. Fans on social media were confused about how Trent Williams was not ejected after punching a player in front of the referees.
Nonetheless, in the end, the Niners had a comfortable victory against the Giants on Thursday night as the final scores read 30-12 in favor of the San Francisco-based football team. The 49ers QB Brock Purdy continued his good form as he threw for 300-plus yards and led the Niners to their third victory of the 2023 NFL season.
