From the article

Darnold's first interception was on his first throw of the game, a third-and-10 play to Jaxon Smith-Njigba on a pass to the sideline that went right to 49ers cornerback Renardo Green

STACKED’s take

NeutralUsage

Darnold's two INTs vs. SF stemmed from aggressive third-down decision and underthrown ball to Arroyo.

Darnold had two interceptions against the 49ers: one on third-and-10 to Jaxon Smith-Njigba on a sideline pass that was intercepted by Renardo Green (described as not the best decision, trying to be aggressive for the first down), and another on his first throw of the second half to tight end Elijah Arroyo where Green undercutting the route resulted in a pick (Darnold acknowledged needing to put more air under it).
