Overview
- San Francisco has not ruled Purdy out and plans a late‑week decision based on how he looks during team sessions.
- Purdy was limited on Wednesday as he ramps up after re‑aggravating the same toe in his Week 4 return.
- Kyle Shanahan said there is no deadline for a call and that any hobbling in practice would prevent clearance.
- General manager John Lynch said the choice hinges on trusting Purdy’s readiness and that MetLife Stadium’s turf is not part of the calculus.
- Mac Jones would start if Purdy is not cleared, having gone 4–2 with an 89.0 passer rating and an average of 266.2 passing yards per game.
