Purdy-Evans connection already strong; chemistry expected to improve with reps

Brock Purdy connected with Mike Evans on a red zone fade touchdown in the 49ers' 27-7 win, and head coach Kyle Shanahan indicated the quarterback-receiver connection should only improve. Shanahan noted that Purdy and Evans worked together this offseason in Tennessee and had limited reps during training camp, but their chemistry was already evident in the opener. Shanahan expressed confidence that additional opportunities will strengthen their rapport moving forward.
