"Purdy missed last week's win at New Orleans with the injury. He returned to practice this week on a limited basis but was unable to make it back to play Sunday. Purdy initially hurt the toe in the first half against the Seahawks, but was able to play through the injury on adrenaline. Purdy went 26 for 35 for 277 yards with two TDs and two interceptions and led a game-winning TD drive capped by a 4-yard pass to Jake Tonges."
"SANTA CLARA -- San Francisco quarterback Brock Purdy will miss his second straight game with a toe injury on Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals. The 49ers downgraded Purdy to out for the game before inactives were due. San Francisco also downgraded starting receiver Jauan Jennings to out because of injuries to his shoulder and ankle. Mac Jones will start his second game for San Francisco in place of Purdy. Jones threw for 279 yards and three TDs in his first start last week against New Orleans."
San Francisco quarterback Brock Purdy will miss his second straight game Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals because of a toe injury. The 49ers downgraded Purdy and starting receiver Jauan Jennings to out. Mac Jones will start his second game in place of Purdy after throwing for 279 yards and three touchdowns in his first start. Adrian Martinez was promoted from the practice squad to serve as the backup. The team also remains without George Kittle (hamstring, injured reserve) and Brandon Aiyuk (knee recovery, PUP). An MRI showed an injury similar to turf toe that does not require surgery. Purdy missed two games last season for shoulder and elbow issues but has otherwise been the starter since late 2022.
