Overview
- San Francisco (5-3) travels to MetLife Stadium to face New York (2-6) on Sunday at 1 p.m. ET, with the 49ers having won two straight in the series.
- Brock Purdy remains questionable after a toe injury sidelined him four games, and coaches have not named a starter as Mac Jones continues practice reps.
- To bolster a thin front, the 49ers acquired edge rusher Keion White this week and saw Yetur Gross-Matos and several defensive linemen return to limited practice, while Bryce Huff is not expected to play.
- The Giants’ offense is led by rookie Jaxson Dart (984 yards, 8 TDs in five starts) but is without Cam Skattebo and Malik Nabers for the season.
- Oddsmakers list San Francisco as a roughly 2.5-point favorite, and team leaders have cast the game as an important barometer before potential roster moves at the Nov. 4 deadline.
