It's been well over a month since quarterback Brock Purdy took the field for the San Francisco 49ers, and it's even more amazing to think the Niners' franchise signal-caller has played just two games this season after inking his lucrative $265 million extension last offseason.
Yet that's been his reality since suffering a turf-toe injury way back in Week 1, then aggravating it during Week 4 in what was only his second start of the year.
While Purdy's return to action has frustratingly been delayed again and again ever since, it finally appears to be coming to a close, according to general manager John Lynch.
