49ers QB Brock Purdy is expected to miss two to five games with a turf toe variant, per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. He suffered the injury in the second quarter of Week 1 vs. Seattle. Mac Jones will start in his place this week.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network: “QB Brock Purdy is out 2-5 weeks with a turf toe variant, sources say. With this timeline for 49ers QB Brock Purdy, he's likely to miss games against the Saints and Cardinals, at least. Then, his availability will be determined by how his rehab goes.”
Rapoport outlined a fluid timeline for Purdy, with his return hinging on rehab. HC Kyle Shanahan said the injury resembles turf toe but in a unique spot, making a precise timeline tough to nail down. We may not know more until the week of his return.
The loss of Purdy downgrades every 49er not named Christian McCaffrey. WRs Ricky Pearsall and Jauan Jennings become riskier starts with Mac Jones under center.
Jones could be a desperate superflex option, especially for Purdy managers, as Shanahan’s system provides some floor. But the 49ers won’t be back at full strength until Purdy, George Kittle, and Brandon Aiyuk return.
