"Anytime guys are sore and hurting on a Monday, you usually don't stress too much about it, but anytime you have a Thursday game, it's a totally different element, coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday morning on a conference call with reporters. Yeah, I'm concerned with anybody who's not totally healthy, Shanahan added. We'll have to get more information on that later to really have a clue to speculate."
"Purdy was limited in practice the past two weeks but cleared off the injury report Friday. His return went awry with a bevy of high throws and multiple drops by his targets (22-of-38). He passed for 309 yards and two touchdowns, but he got tagged with three turnovers, including two interceptions before a strip-sack fumble on the 49ers' final snap from midfield with 2:47 remaining."
"He didn't indicate (soreness) to me at all during the game, Shanahan said. I talked to him on the phone last night and he said it was starting to bother him. But nothing during the game at all. Immediately after the game, Purdy told reporters he felt good. I thought I was able to go out and play quarterback and give our team a chance."
Brock Purdy aggravated his right big toe in the 49ers' 26-21 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, creating uncertainty about his availability for the upcoming Thursday game at the Los Angeles Rams. Purdy had missed two games, was limited in practice for two weeks, and was cleared off the injury report Friday before returning. He completed 22-of-38 passes for 309 yards and two touchdowns but recorded three turnovers, including two interceptions and a strip-sack fumble on the final snap. Kyle Shanahan expressed concern for players who are not fully healthy and said more information is needed. The 49ers committed errors on offense, defense, and special teams, and Shanahan noted inaccurate passes can stem from mechanics, overcompensation for injury, or other factors.
