49ers Brock Purdy Day-to-Day with Shoulder, Toe Injuries Ahead of Game 2

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy is dealing with a left shoulder and toe injury sustained during the season opener against the Seahawks, with the toe injury being the more serious concern, putting his availability for the upcoming game against the Saints in question. Coach Kyle Shanahan described Purdy as 'day to day' and acknowledged uncertainty about whether he can play through the injuries, noting that if Purdy cannot play, backup Mac Jones is expected to start. Meanwhile, running back Christian McCaffrey is recovering from a calf injury and did not practice prior to the opener, raising concerns about his long-term availability given his injury history. McCaffrey’s potential absence places added pressure on Purdy, who signed a significant contract extension and is viewed as a top MVP contender, but whose performance tends to decline when key offensive weapons are sidelined. Additional injuries include wide receiver Jauan Jennings, who is awaiting a CT scan for a shoulder injury, and tight end George Kittle, who will be out for several weeks with a hamstring injury. The 49ers face a tense situation as they seek to build on their season-opening win after missing the playoffs last year.
