Niners fans, brace yourselves for some not-so-great news dropping from Levi’s Stadium this week. Our beloved quarterback Brock Purdy is potentially sidelined for multiple weeks after sustaining injuries to his toe and left shoulder during last Sunday’s game against the Seahawks.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan didn’t mince words when he told reporters that Purdy is a “long shot” for this weekend’s game against the Saints. Talk about a curveball that could seriously impact the team’s momentum.

Enter Mac Jones: Backup QB Extraordinaire

With Purdy out, all eyes are on Mac Jones, the former Patriots and Jaguars player who’ll be stepping up to lead the offense. Jones, who was once a potential draft pick for the 49ers back in 2021, now gets his shot at redemption in the Bay Area.

The Injury Lineup

As if Purdy’s situation wasn’t challenging enough, tight end George Kittle is also expected to miss multiple weeks due to a hamstring injury. The silver lining? The team still has Christian McCaffrey and Jauan Jennings to help Jones navigate this tricky situation.

What’s Next for the Niners?

Fans are holding their breath to see if Mac Jones can maintain the team’s perfect season record. With Shanahan’s impressive track record of developing backup quarterbacks, there’s hope that the 49ers might just weather this injury storm.
