The San Francisco 49ers have been without quarterback Brock Purdy for much of this season. He did not suit up yet again on Sunday versus the New York Giants, and after the game, head coach Kyle Shanahan said what had long been suspected.
Addressing media after the game, Shanahan said, "We’re trying to ease Brock out there, but anytime you’re dealing with this turf toe, it’s probably something that probably won’t fully go away all year, regardless of when he comes back. … It’s a little bit of a tricky decision."
Finally, Shanahan has admitted that Purdy's turf-toe issue is going to linger for the rest of the season no matter what.
