National reaction to 49ers arriving in All-Black for Week 13 matchup vs. Eagles

After ten months of talking, speculations, what-ifs, and rule changes, the San Francisco 49ers will get another shot at the Philadelphia Eagles with a healthy Brock Purdy at quarterback.

The Niners arrive with Brock Purdy, along with a talented skill position group that has the Niners favored on the road against a 10-1 Eagles team.

San Francisco says it’s just another game, but 49ers players are dressed in all black for an NFL-style funeral ahead of Sunday’s matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Philadelphia will be without Zach Cunningham (hamstring), while Fletcher Cox (groin) is a gametime decision.

Fletcher Cox will play, while Dallas Goedert will wait another week.

With kickoff fast approaching, here is the reaction to the 49ers All-Black approach.
