Brock Purdy, quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers, is facing a potential game-time decision due to a sore throwing shoulder sustained in last week's loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Limited in practice, Purdy's status remains uncertain as the team evaluates his condition ahead of their matchup against the Green Bay Packers.
Coach Kyle Shanahan indicated that Purdy has not missed a start since taking over in December 2021, and his absence could significantly impact the 49ers' playoff aspirations. The team is currently tied for second in the NFC West and needs to secure wins to remain in contention.
In addition to Purdy, All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams and star defensive end Nick Bosa are also dealing with injuries, while running back Christian McCaffrey has returned to practice after resting. The 49ers will release their injury report on Friday.
