On Wednesday, the Niners Kyle Shanahan head coach told journalists on Wednesday that Purdy could miss “several weeks”, so that he was unlikely to play in New Orleans on Sunday.
On the eve of initiating the second week in the NFL, the 49ers must already deal with their share of injuries.
Purdy won the victory against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday when he managed 26 of his 35 passes for gains from 277 yards. He completed two passes for affected and was intercepted twice.
Mac Jones will be the start of the saints on Sunday.
Jones, who started his career with New England from 2021 to 2023, spent last year as a replacement for Trevor Lawrence in Jacksonville, where he obtained several departures. The former first-round choice has a career file of 20-29 with 54 affected and 44 interceptions.
