Kyle will have more than one week of patience, but probably less than a full year. Injuries have happened far more often than any depth chart change. There have been like 20 injuries to QB's, and two changes to the depth chart, maybe three if you count Mullens and Bethard swapping the 2 and 3 spot.

Great news for Purdy. I think we will still add a QB or two, but I imagine that we will go into camp with Purdy as the starter, Lance as the backup, and then maybe a Mason Rudolph type as QB3? Then maybe draft Aiden O'Connell as a guy who may be able to be stashed on the practice squad? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NinerNation21 Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Excellent news for him. It will be fun to watch him and Lance battle it out this summer. I think they'll still bring in a vet QB to be on the roster all season long and will also pick up a UDFA QB to be on the PS as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N4L Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 (edited) I won't be convinced his arm is healed until I see him play in an actual game, throwing the ball 25+ yards in the air. Until then, the "it's a three month injury with a three month ramp up" is meaningless. I am very skeptical.

But based on this teams track record with recovering from injuries.... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldman9er Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Brock Purdy says doctors may switch to more complex elbow surgery during operation - ProFootballTalk (nbcsports.com) Brock Purdy says doctors may switch to more complex elbow surgery during operation Quote “Yeah, that’s Dr. Meister’s call,” Purdy shared. “He’s done this year after year with the best of the best with MLB pitchers. So he’s definitely seen this kind of thing happen, and he’s going to make the best call, and not just for the heck of it. It’s obviously for the best call for my career moving forward. And he knows what’s best, and he’s going to make the best decision for us, so it’ll be good.” 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

49erurtaza Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Purdy's timeline if all goes well puts him ready to play sometime in September. I think we can officially say Lance is handed the job back. Lance really just needs to show command and improvement and we probably stick with Lance for the 2023 season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can't be good that he's still got inflammation after all this time either. That seems crazy. Thats what, a month? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
