Jimmy Garoppolo’s three turnovers have cost the 49ers the lead.
Seattle leads 21-10, having used Garoppolo’s two fumbles and an interception for 21 unanswered points.
Jadeveon Clowney, acquired in a trade with the Texans on the eve of the season, scored his second touchdown of the season. He got the Seahawks on the board with a 10-yard return of a fumble forced by Jarran Reed.
That drew the Seahawks to within 10-7 at halftime.
In the third quarter, tight end Jacob Hollister caught a 3-yard touchdown pass from Russell Wilson to give the Seahawks a 14-10 lead. It is their first lead of the night.
