Brock Purdy to Start for 49ers in Week 11 Return at Cardinals

The move comes after a full-practice clearance ended his toe-injury layoff since Week 4.

Overview

  • Purdy practiced in full on Thursday and Friday, with Kyle Shanahan praising it as an "awesome week" of work.
  • Ricky Pearsall was cleared for his first game since Week 4, and coaches said he will be eased back into action.
  • Cornerback Deommodore Lenoir is questionable after a calf issue in practice, and the team plans imaging to evaluate it.
  • Mac Jones went 5-3 as the starter during Purdy’s absence and handled the transition back professionally, according to Shanahan.
  • The Cardinals ruled out several players, including Marvin Harrison Jr. following appendicitis surgery, for Sunday’s matchup.
