Overview
- Purdy remains limited in practice and his status for Sunday against the Rams is uncertain after missing five straight games.
- Shanahan said the turf toe issue likely won’t fully resolve this season and the team will follow a measured return-to-practice plan.
- The coach emphasized that Mac Jones’ performance does not influence the timing of Purdy’s return, calling it “Brock’s team.”
- Jones is 5-2 as the starter with 1,832 passing yards, 10 touchdowns and five interceptions, earning playing-time incentives during the stretch.
- Purdy’s five-year, $265 million extension underscores the organization’s view of him as the long-term QB1 despite the current absence.
