49ers HC Kyle Shanahan said he expects QB Mac Jones to remain with San Francisco through 2026, according to ESPN’s Nick Wagoner. Jones started eight games in place of the injured Brock Purdy last season, going 5-3.
The 49ers are signing WR Christian Kirk to a one-year, $6 million deal, insider Jordan Schultz reports. Kirk tallied a career-low 239 receiving yards in 13 games with the Texans last year. He'll turn 30 in November.
San Francisco agreed to a three-year, $60.4 million deal with longtime Buccaneers WR Mike Evans, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Evans spent his entire 12-year career in Tampa Bay after being selected seventh overall in the 2014 NFL Draft, leaving as the franchise’s all-time leader in receptions (866), receiving yards (13,052), and TDs (108).
49ers QB Brock Purdy suffered a stinger at the end of Saturday's night's loss to the Seahawks, HC Kyle Shanahan said afterward. Purdy "checked out alright" and could have returned to the game, Shanahan added. It sounds like Purdy will be fine for the playoff opener, but we'll keep tabs on his status this coming week.
49ers QB Brock Purdy went 25/34 for 295 yards and 5 TDs with RB Christian McCaffrey going 21-117-0 on the ground and 6-29-2 on 8 targets through the air. The 49ers team put up 48 points on the Colts with Purdy tossing every TD except a late fourth-quarter pick-six from the defense. The 49ers' offense helped elevate playoff fantasy teams to make comebacks and could be league winners next week against the Bears.
The forecast for today's 49ers-Browns game calls for sustained winds of 25 mph with gusts around 35 mph. The total in this game has dropped from 42.5 to 35.5. Expect a run-heavy game plan from both sides. RBs Christian McCaffrey and Quinshon Judkins can stay in fantasy lineups. TE George Kittle is the only comfortable play from either passing game. Avoid the kickers.
Niners QB Brock Purdy threw for 200 yards and 3 TDs in Sunday's win over the Cardinals. The game marked Purdy's first action since Week 4, because of turf toe. He completed 19 of 26 passes in the lopsided victory, including a 10-of-15 first half (for 123 yards and 2 TDs). Purdy found TE George Kittle for scores from 30 and 4 yards out and hit RB Christian McCaffrey for a 9-yard score early in the second quarter.
49ers QB Brock Purdy (toe) will start Sunday's game vs. the Cardinals, HC Kyle Shanahan said Thursday. Purdy's toe evidently responded well to the increased work in Wednesday's practice. It's worth remembering that Shanahan previously said that Purdy likely wouldn't be back to 100% at any point this season. Don't expect his rushing production to reach the 21.5 yards per game he averaged last year. But Purdy can still help fantasy teams the rest of the way. He tallied 277-2-2 and 309-2-2 passing lines in his only two games earlier this season. Purdy gets fine matchups the next two weeks against the Cardinals and Panthers, followed by a tougher draw vs. the Browns and then a Week 14 bye. Purdy then closes the season with three nice spots vs. the Titans, Colts, and Bears.
