The San Francisco 49ers are coming off a heartbreaking loss to the Seattle Seahawks, dropping their record to 5-5 on the season and putting them in third place in the NFC West. The 49ers have had a disappointing season due to injuries and off-the-field drama in 2024, and it seems like things keep getting worse as time goes on. Now, quarterback Brock Purdy is dealing with an injury that is putting his availability in question.
San Francisco 49ers QB Injured
According to head coach Kyle Shanahan, Purdy is dealing with right shoulder soreness and is now considered day-to-day in practice this week. San Francisco is traveling to Wisconsin next week to take on the Green Bay Packers, and not having Purdy in the lineup would seriously hurt their chances of a victory.

Brock Purdy Impact
Purdy has amounted to 2,613 passing yards and 13 touchdowns this season and has been a big help in keeping the 49ers competitive in games. He has been tested this year with injuries to his star players like Christian McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel, and George Kittle. Luckily for San Francisco, they will likely be getting back to Kittle next week.
While Purdy is likely to play despite the injury, it could be dangerous as he could re-injure the shoulder in the game. With multiple stars still suffering from injuries, the 49ers cannot risk their star quarterback missing time if they want to make a playoff push.
