Brock Purdy remains limited Thursday
Our Summary
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy remains limited in practice as he recovers from a turf toe injury initially sustained in the season opener. After aggravating the injury in Week 4, Purdy has been sidelined, with Mac Jones starting the last six games in his absence. General Manager John Lynch indicated that Purdy is making progress and the team will assess his readiness by the end of the week to make a decision on his return.
In other team news, the 49ers practiced without center Jake Brendel and defensive end Bryce Huff, both out with hamstring injuries, and wide receiver Ricky Pearsall, who is dealing with a knee issue. Defensive tackle Alfred Collins, defensive end Yetur Gross-Matos, linebacker Dee Winters, and defensive end Sam Okuayinonu returned to practice on a limited basis after being absent on Wednesday. Offensive guard Ben Bartch, defensive tackle Jordan Elliott, and cornerback Upton Stout were also limited for the second consecutive day.
