- NFL Network's Ian Rapoport indicated Jones is likely to start against the Falcons to reduce re-injury risk for Purdy.
- ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Purdy is making progress and could be available, though his Week 7 status is not assured.
- Jones has gone 3-1 with 1,252 passing yards, six touchdowns and three interceptions in Purdy's absence.
- GM John Lynch said Brandon Aiyuk is "getting closer" to returning, as the injury-hit 49ers also deal with Fred Warner's season-ending ankle injury.
