"Going into Year 4, I wanted to come in and play my best ball so far in my career and was really excited about it. We come in, play Seattle and win on the road and just feeling really good about the year and then all of a sudden, like, I'm just dealing with the toe thing and it has been frustrating."
"No. Going into that week, I felt good. I really did. And I thought I was going to be good to go. I just unfortunately got caught in a bad position with my toe again and just reaggravated it. And looking back on it, I'm a competitor, I want to go out and lead and I felt good throughout the week to be able to go out and lead our guys to win and play good quarterback."
Brock Purdy returns as the 49ers' starting quarterback after missing six straight starts and eight overall due to an initial Week 1 toe injury and a Week 4 aggravation. He held his first media session in over a month and acknowledged frustration over lost time and missed opportunities while the team pursued wins. He stated that returning in Week 4 after a two-game hiatus was not a mistake because he felt ready, but the toe was caught in a bad position and re-aggravated. He emphasized that the situation is part of circumstance, expressed determination, and noted seven games remain to pursue team goals.
