Jones Reports Dead Body; 49ers Win in OT

The San Francisco 49ers beat the Los Angeles Rams 23–20 in overtime, with kicker Eddy Piñeiro converting a 59-yard field goal earlier and a 41-yard game-winner in OT. Kendrick Bourne posted a career-best 10 catches for 142 yards, helping offset a depleted receiving corps. Mac Jones completed 33-of-49 passes for 342 yards and two touchdowns while battling a left-knee issue and severe cramping that caused vomiting, and said he felt good afterward. Jones told teammates he saw a dead body floating in the water outside the 49ers' team hotel in Marina del Rey the morning of the game; investigators and a coroner’s van responded and the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department is investigating, though authorities have not identified the deceased or released a cause of death. Jones has now started three times for San Francisco and has completed 66.7% of his passes this season for 905 yards, six touchdowns and one interception while downplaying any quarterback controversy, and Brock Purdy is limited by turf toe and considered week-to-week.
