With Jimmy Garoppolo out with a calf injury, 49ers rookie Trey Lance saw his first extended action in the NFL and after the game Kyle Shanahan assessed Trey’s perferomance.
Trey Lance made NFL history in the 49ers' 28-21 loss to the Seattle Seahawks at Levi's Stadium on Sunday.
After taking over for Jimmy Garoppolo at the start of the second half, Lance eventually connected with Deebo Samuel for a 76-yard touchdown pass. It was the second of Lance's career after he threw a 5-yard touchdown to Mohamed Sanu in San Francisco's Week 1 win over the Detroit Lions.
In both situations, the TD passes came on Lance's first completion of the game. In doing so, he became the first NFL quarterback in more than 40 years to have his first two career completions go for touchdowns.
