49ers QB Sent for Doping Test After Crushing Browns in Week 13 Victory and the Breakout Performance That Triggered It

Cleveland, Ohio
The San Francisco 49ers secured a dominant 26 to 8 win over the Cleveland Browns in Week 13 of the 2025 NFL season. While the defense was rock solid, the player who turned the tide and controlled the game flow came from the offensive side of the ball. A young quarterback who just had his most complete performance of the month.

49ers' Brock Purdy Uncertain for NFL Week 2 vs. Saints amid Shoulder, Toe  Injuries

Right after the final whistle, the player wearing jersey number 13 was quietly pulled away from the postgame celebration by an NFL staff member and led into the league’s testing facility. Witnesses say this happened right after he performed the Dougie dance in the end zone. The timing raised eyebrows everywhere.

His breakout was impossible to ignore. And now the league was watching.


That player was none other than Brock Purdy

Purdy’s Week 13 performance was a clear statement. He completed 16 of 29 passes for 168 yards and 1 touchdown through the air with zero interceptions. He also added a 2 yard rushing touchdown, his first rushing TD of the season and the ninth of his NFL career.

His estimated QBR hovered around 85. But more important than numbers was the way he controlled the second half. The 49ers scored 16 unanswered points while the Browns were completely shut down. Purdy used his legs to escape pressure, extended plays with smart footwork, and managed the game with precision.

He did not try to be flashy. He just executed. And he won.

Kyle Shanahan says he is not here to perform he is here to win

Speaking to reporters after the game, 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan was asked about Purdy being selected for a postgame doping test. His reaction was calm and proud.

"I have no idea what they are looking for. But if playing clean football, scoring touchdowns, and avoiding turnovers gets you tested, I will gladly take that every week. He is not here to perform. He is here to win."

Shanahan emphasized that Purdy did exactly what the team needed. He avoided risky throws, escaped sacks when needed, extended drives, and made decisive plays when it mattered.

With that Dougie dance in enemy territory and a confident smile, Brock Purdy may have just reminded the entire league why the 49ers trust him to lead their playoff charge.

Saints Cheerleader Sues a Saints Player for Harassment by Flirting with Her While Already Married
Can you believe it? A charming, dynamic cheerleader from the New Orleans Saints is "exploding" and dragging a team player to court for "unforgivable" behaviors! Abigale Licciardi – the star of the Saints Cheer Krewe – has officially filed a lawsuit, and the drama behind it is stirring up NFL fans! Could this be the "biggest scandal" in Saints history? Read now to discover the "scorching" details! Abigale Licciardi, a professional cheerleader for the American football team New Orleans Saints in the NFL, is a prominent member of the Saints Cheer Krewe group. She is a former student at the University of Louisiana, where she participated in the local cheer squad and dance activities. Before that, Abigale was a dancer for NBA events and holds a bachelor's degree in communications from Tulane University. Abigale is active on social media, often sharing about games at Caesars Superdome, community activities, and her role as a brand ambassador for the Saints. As part of the Saints Cheer Krewe team consisting of about 47 members (combining male and female), Abigale participates in fan interactions, charity events like "Dream On 3," and performances at Saints games. She has an Instagram account (@abigalelicciardi) with posts about cheer life and a TikTok (@abigale_saints) where she shares videos about game days and dance routines. Before joining the Saints, she worked at a local event company, proving her versatility and passion. But the "nightmare" struck when Abigale got "entangled" with a Saints player! That's Mike Thornton, a backup defensive end who rarely plays for the Saints – a guy who's practically "anonymous" to fans, only playing sporadically on special teams and never a pillar. Thornton, 29 years old, has been married since 2021 to his wife, a community nurse, and they have two young children (one boy and one girl). Yet, according to Abigale's lawsuit, Thornton has been "flirting" with her recklessly, despite his happy family life! The "explosion" happened when Thornton started sending "sweet" messages to Abigale via Instagram, praising her smile and energy after performances. At first, Abigale thought it was just friendly praise from a teammate, but things quickly "crossed the line" into harassment! Thornton called her in the middle of the night – sometimes at 1-2 a.m. – to "share" about playing pressures, invite her for private dinners, and even send "suggestive" videos filmed at the gym! Abigale stated in the lawsuit: "He knows I only focus on my career and the team, but he won't stop. Those midnight calls make me anxious and stressed, severely affecting my performance!" According to insider sources, Thornton has been "stalking" Abigale since preseason, frequently "lingering" at community events she attends, and intentionally "creating situations" to approach her. Thornton's wife, upon learning, went "crazy" and threatened to break up, but the guy remains "blind"! The Saints are "shaken" by this scandal: The team management has temporarily isolated Thornton for investigation, while fans are divided – one side defends Abigale's "brave accusation," the other suspects it's a "staged script." The NFL league is also intervening, which could lead to heavy fines or removal from the roster! Abigale, with her "queen" image on TikTok and Instagram, is now becoming a "victim" of harassment – a thorny issue in the sports world! How will the court punish Thornton? And will the Saints "clean up" the team to protect their cheerleaders? Don't miss out – follow now for the next "drama" update! What do you think about this case, comment below!
