The 49ers beat the Raiders 38-⁠17 behind five second-half takeaways

If you missed Sunday's game in Santa Clara, here's the short version: the 49ers beat the Raiders 38-17 and are 7-1, their best start since 2019. Rookie linebacker Jaden Dugger opened the second half with an interception return for a touchdown, and four more takeaways followed.

San Francisco had five takeaways in the second half for the first time in 20 years. The team had managed only seven in its first seven games, so the burst flipped its season-long turnover differential from negative to positive. Fred Warner forced one fumble and recovered another.

  • Brock Purdy: two touchdown passes and a rushing touchdown
  • Renardo Green: end-zone interception of Kirk Cousins
  • Raiders: now 4-5

The young players are driving it, too. Tight end George Kittle said the veterans' best players will take them far, "but we need young guys to step up."

49ers

49ers lose rookie Gracen Halton for the season, but expect CJ West and Deebo Samuel back Wednesday

The 49ers will be without rookie Gracen Halton for the rest of the season. Coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed Monday that Halton broke and dislocated his ankle against the Raiders, and he's doubtful Halton could be back by the playoffs.

Halton is out, while West and Samuel are due back at practice

West, a defensive tackle, has been recovering from a procedure to remove a bone chip from his knee. Samuel has been out with a hamstring injury suffered in Week 5.

  • Tuesday: the team's usual day off
  • Wednesday: back to practice to prep for Dallas
  • Sunday: at the Cowboys, 1:25 p.m. PT

The depth is being tested. The Niners won without wideouts Mike Evans, Deebo Samuel Sr. and Christian Kirk, and running back Christian McCaffrey tied Hall of Famer Joe Perry for the most straight games with a rushing touchdown.
