San Francisco's loss prevented them from winning the NFC West and theNo. 1 seed in the NFC playoffs.

Shanahan said Purdy's stinger won't prevent him from playing in next week's wild-card game.

The 49ers have delt with a slew of injuries this season. Linebacker Fred Warner (ankle) and Nick Bosa (knee) suffered season-ending injuries earlier in the season. Standout left tackle Trent Williams (hamstring) and wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee and ankle) were both inactive on Saturday due to injuries.

San Francisco does expect Williams, Pearsall and Purdy to be available for next week's road playoff game.

"It would've been nice to have both home games here and get a bye, but it is what it is," Shanahan said. "This team's been through a lot this year. Now we got to do it the hard way. We'll embrace the (expletive) out of doing it the hard way. Look forward to it."
