The Eagles have acquired 49ers wide receiver Marquise Goodwin in a trade that also included the teams swapping sixth-round draft choices.
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Marquise Goodwin said it was his faith and the strength of his wife, Morgan, that allowed him to play Sunday, just hours after the couple's son was delivered stillborn.
49ers receiver Marquise Goodwin just wanted to play football after his son was delivered stillborn early Sunday morning. "He was hurting but he was adamant he wanted to play, and that's something as a coach you respect," Kyle Shanahan said.
Receiver Marquise Goodwin, who starred in the 49ers' win over the Giants, says he and wife Morgan's baby boy died Sunday morning because of complications during her pregnancy.
Seven San Francisco 49ers players knelt during the national anthem, while the rest of the team stood and locked arms prior to Sunday's game against the Washington Redskins.
Marquise Goodwin, along with a group of other 49ers players, participated in a Make-A-Wish Foundation event last week that allowed young fans to meet with some of their favorite players.
