(NewsNation) — An attorney representing the family of a man who allegedly died from consuming Panera Bread’s popular caffeinated “charged lemonade” told NewsNation the drink is no ordinary highly-caffeinated beverage.“We have a situation here where we have a drink that has 390 milligrams of caffeine, it also has gharana. And what it is, is it contains as much caffeine as three Red Bulls,” said Elizabeth Crawford, a lawyer for the families of the deceased.The family of a 46-year-old Florida man filed a wrongful death and negligence lawsuit against Panera, claiming the beverage contributed to his death.

GLENDALE, Ariz. — An hour into his homecoming, Brock Purdy was flat on his back. He’d just taken a helmet-to-helmet hit from 232-pound linebacker Dennis Gardeck. The crowd, dominated by 49ers fans, tried to rally Purdy by chanting his name.Was he knocked out? Did his surgically repaired elbow get wrecked? Was the 49ers’ season in peril?Purdy would miss only three snaps because of a nerve stinger in his left shoulder, and he’d finish off that same drive with one of his four touchdown passes en route to a 45-29 victory over the Arizona Cardinals.The 49ers (11-3) thus clinched their second straight NFC West title and their 23rd division crown in franchise history. They remain in position for the NFC’s No. 1 playoff seed with three regular-season games to go, their next being on Christmas next Monday night against the Baltimore Ravens at Levi’s Stadium.When Purdy’s fourth touchdown pass found Deebo Samuel on a 17-yarder to the front left pylon, offensive linemen gave Purdy a...McCaffrey scores 3 TDs and 49ers roll past Cardinals 45-29 for 6th straight win
