When asked about facing the Seahawks again, wide receiver Jauan Jennings hilariously yelled, "Can't wait!" while pounding on the podium during his postgame media availability.
Jennings finished the game in Philadelphia with one catch for 45 yards but was pivotal in the 49ers' win, throwing a touchdown pass to running back Christian McCaffrey that helped secure the 23-19 victory.
He isn't the only one eager for a rematch with Seattle.
"I'm glad we get another shot," head coach Kyle Shanahan said. "They played us real well [in Week 18], definitely beat us, but I know we can play better than that. So, glad we got another shot."
Despite facing numerous injuries this season—including this weekend's loss of star tight end George Kittle (Achilles)—the 49ers remain in contention for a Super Bowl trip. The No. 1 seed Seahawks present a tough challenge, but this team has consistently shown it refuses to back down in the face of adversity.
