49ers QB Brock Purdy (shoulder) remains uncertain for Sunday night's game vs. the Bills, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Purdy was "very limited" in Wednesday's practice, Rapoport adds. "Probably needs to improve just a little bit to be able to get on the field" against the Bills. QB Brandon Allen mustered just 199 passing yards and one TD on 6.9 yards per attempt last week and would be a big downgrade for San Francisco's offense if he starts again.
49ers QB Brock Purdy (right shoulder) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. We'll see how he progresses throughout the week, leading up to Sunday night's game vs. the Bills. But Purdy won't be a recommended QB1 play coming off the shoulder injury against the No. 9 QB defense.
Rams WR Demarcus Robinson was charged with DUI after being pulled over in Los Angeles early Monday morning, according to TMZ. Robinson was allegedly driving "in excess of 100 mph" and showed signs of impairment. There's a good chance this earns Robinson a suspension, although it might not come this season. We'll keep you updated on the situation.
49ers QB Brock Purdy (shoulder) did some "light throwing" on Monday and felt good, HC Kyle Shanahan said. “We didn’t push him that hard,” Shanahan added. “But he did some light throwing, which was a good sign. We’ll rest him tomorrow and see how he feels as the week goes.” Two MRIs on Purdy's throwing shoulder last week -- one on Monday, one on Thursday -- revealed no structural damage. Purdy seemingly has a chance to return for Sunday night's game vs. the Bills, but we'll keep you updated on his progress throughout the week. Shanahan said QB Brandon Allen would get another start in Buffalo if Purdy is out.
Rams WR Demarcus Robinson caught one of the two TD passes Matthew Stafford threw in Sunday night's loss to the Eagles. But that came among just 2 receptions for 15 yards. Robinson's TD also arrived on the first play after CB Isaiah Rodgers entered the game for the Eagles, signaling the Rams were targeting the new guy.
ESPN's Adam Schefter writes that 49ers QB Brock Purdy (shoulder) "should" be able to play against the Bills next Sunday night. "Then again, they also thought he would be able to start today at Green Bay before he couldn’t," Schefter adds. "Still, for the time being, there does not seem to be a high level of concern." This seems like a situation where the team truly doesn't know how Purdy's injured right shoulder will progress. We'll keep you updated on his status throughout next week.
49ers HC Kyle Shanahan admitted Friday that QB Brock Purdy (shoulder) is "up in the air" for Week 13. "I don't want to say there's long-term concern," Shanahan said. "We thought he just needed some rest. Really weren't concerned about him not being good this week, but when he started up Thursday, it surprised him, surprised us how it felt, so we had to shut him down." GM John Lynch said Friday morning that Purdy's Monday MRI didn't reveal anything concerning, but it doesn't seem like Purdy was close to being able to play against Green Bay on Sunday. We'll keep you updated on his status next week.
49ers TE George Kittle (hamstring) practiced all week and isn’t listed on the final injury report for Sunday’s game vs. the Packers. He should be ready for a full slate of snaps but downgrades to mid- to low-end TE1 status without QB Brock Purdy.
49ers QB Brock Purdy (shoulder) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Packers. His injured right shoulder evidently didn't progress throughout the week as the team had hoped. GM John Lynch said Friday that an MRI on the shoulder didn't show anything concerning, so we're not expecting this to be a long-term absence. But Purdy's absence this weekend leaves QB Brandon Allen as San Francisco's expected starter. Allen has been with the 'Niners since May 2023 but has not attempted a regular-season pass for them. He completed just 57% of his passes at 6.1 yards per attempt in limited action for the Broncos and Bengals from 2019-2022. Allen is clearly a significant downgrade for all San Francisco pass catchers. Expect the team to lean heavily on RB Christian McCaffrey on Sunday.
49ers GM John Lynch said Friday morning that QB Brock Purdy had an MRI on his right shoulder. "Feel good about where it is from that standpoint," Lynch said. But he stopped short of saying that Purdy will play vs. the Packers this weekend. "Brock will show up here today, see where he goes from practice, go forth accordingly," Lynch said. He added that QB Brandon Allen would get the start if Purdy is out but that QB Josh Dobbs would also "be ready." We'll update Purdy's status again this afternoon.
49ers QB Brock Purdy (shoulder) was officially limited again in Thursday's practice. According to insider Grant Cohn, Purdy tried to warm up at the start of practice but was clearly uncomfortable and then headed inside with trainers. "He was still limited today," HC Kyle Shanahan said afterward. "He didn't do as much yesterday but did a little bit more today. He went out there and did a little bit then went back in about halfway through and rested up. Hopefully it will be feeling great on Sunday." We're certainly more worried about Purdy's Week 12 status now than we were at this point yesterday. We'll update the situation again on Friday. QB Brandon Allen would likely get the start vs. the Packers this weekend if Purdy is out.
49ers TE George Kittle (hamstring) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He said afterward that he fully expects to play against the Packers this weekend. Kittle can be penciled back into Week 12 fantasy lineups. We'll let you know if something changes with his status.
49ers QB Brock Purdy (shoulder) was limited in Wednesday's practice. HC Kyle Shanahan hasn't sounded particularly concerned about Purdy's availability for this weekend's game vs. the Seahawks, and the fact that Purdy did anything on Wednesday is encouraging. We'll update his status again tomorrow.
49ers TE George Kittle (hamstring) is expected to practice on Wednesday, HC Kyle Shanahan said. That makes Kittle likely to play vs. the Packers this weekend, barring a setback. We'll keep you updated on his status.
49ers QB Brock Purdy is "day to day" with soreness in his right (throwing) shoulder, HC Kyle Shanahan said Monday. Shanahan said the soreness is from a hit Purdy took in the Week 11 loss to the Seahawks. This doesn't sound like a serious injury, but a throwing shoulder injury on a QB is always worth monitoring closely. QB Brandon Allen is listed with the second team on San Francisco's depth chart; Joshua Dobs with the third team.
49ers RB Christian McCaffrey ran 19 times for 79 yards and caught four of five targets for 27 yards. McCaffrey didn’t find the end zone, being bottled up for much of the game by the Seahawks defense.
49ers QB Brock Purdy completed 20-of-27 passes for 157 yards including a TD and a tipped interception. He excelled on the ground rushing five times for 40 yards including a diving TD at the pylon.
49ers TE George Kittle (hamstring) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Seahawks. ESPN’s Adam Schefter said this morning that Kittle will have a “realistic chance” to make it back for Week 12. His absence today leaves Eric Saubert as San Francisco’s lead TE. He’d be a desperation fantasy play. RB Christian McCaffrey and WRs Deebo Samuel, Jauan Jennings, and Ricky Pearsall should pick up extra targets with Kittle out.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter writes that 49ers TE George Kittle (hamstring) is “unlikely” to play Sunday vs. Seattle. Per Schefter, Kittle's injury "is not considered a long-term injury," and the TE is expected to return next week vs. Green Bay. We’ll know his official status around 2:30ET today, but fantasy managers should certainly make other plans. View our Week 11 TE rankings.
49ers WR Jauan Jennings (ankle) is not listed on the final Week 11 injury report. He was a full-go on Friday after being limited on Thursday. Jennings is safe to keep in fantasy lineups as an upside WR3.
