Under a change of last minute, the 49ers of San Francisco will send Mac Jones into the fray for a second week in a row, Sunday, against the Cardinals of Arizona.
Quarterrier No. 1, Brock Purdy, is always an uncertain case for this meeting, while he tries to recover from an injury to a toe suffered last week against the Saints of New Orleans.
After having participated in a limited way in the last three practices of his own, Kyle Shanahan underlined his significant progress in his recovery, but the head coach considers the chances of seeing him start the match behind the center.
“I think it’s highly improbable that he gets the start,” said Shanahan on Friday. We are rather waiting to see if it could be No 2 or an emergency No. 3. »»
Shanahan added that the possibilities of seeing Purdy in uniform will depend on how he feels within 48 hours. They will then decide if he is able to play or if they will have to promote the quarter of the Adrian Martinez training team in his place.
Purdy will have a word to say in this decision.
“Brock gives himself all the other, but she is a lucid person. He is not content to speak with his heart, he works with his heart, but he also speaks with his head to give us the right time. If he cannot get there, he will tell us. »»
The 25 -year -old athlete said Thursday that he wants to play, but that he does not want to compromise his health.
In addition, the case of the Recruit Connor Colby is also uncertain in the left guard post, just like that of the Receiver Jauan Jennings (ankle, shoulder). The latter was not trained this week. Spencer Burford will be away due to a knee injury that may require an operation and Jordan Watkins will also be on the sidelines because of a calf injury suffered yesterday.
