Trick play helps 49ers eliminate Super Bowl champion Eagles from NFL playoffs

San Francisco 49ers 23-19 Philadelphia Eagles
Niners will play Seahawks in divisional round
AFC wildcard: Allen shines as Bills beat Jags

Brock Purdy threw a go-ahead touchdown pass to Christian McCaffrey late in the fourth quarter, San Francisco used a trick play on a TD toss from wide receiver Jauan Jennings, and the 49ers eliminated the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles with a 23-19 wildcard victory on Sunday.

The 49ers head to top-seeded Seattle next weekend for an NFC divisional playoff game. The NFC West rivals split the season series.

Purdy threw for 262 yards and got the road win in Philadelphia he failed to grasp three seasons ago when he was injured in a dismal outing in Philadelphia in a loss in the NFC title game.
