SANTA CLARA, Calif. — San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy returned to practice on Wednesday and has a chance to play this week after missing a game with a toe injury.
Coach Kyle Shanahan said Purdy would be limited at practice because of the toe and a left shoulder injury but could be healthy enough to suit up Sunday against Arizona.
Purdy hurt his toe in the first half of the season opener at Seattle but played through the injury, leading a game-winning touchdown drive capped by a 4-yard pass to Jake Tonges. Purdy went 26 for 35 for 277 yards with two TDs and two interceptions against the Seahawks.
The injury was described as similar to turf toe and Purdy was listed as “week to week.” He now has a chance to play after missing only one game.
