Mac Jones' Production Won't Affect Whether Brock Purdy Will Return in Week 3

Thursday, September 18, 12:23 PM

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that quarterback Mac Jones' performance in the Week 2 win over the New Orleans Saints "doesn't really affect" whether Brock Purdy (toe, shoulder) will play in Week 3 against the division-rival Arizona Cardinals. Basically, when the Niners feel comfortable enough putting Purdy back out there, he'll be out there. Jones went 26-for-39 for 279 yards, three touchdowns, and no interceptions in the 26-21 win over New Orleans, but make no mistake, there is no QB controversy in the Bay Area. Purdy is the starter once he recovers from turf-toe and shoulder injuries. He was limited in practice on Wednesday and has a chance to serve as Jones' backup this Sunday against Arizona. Jones will start at least one more game this weekend, where he'll be in play as a low-end QB in superflex leagues.
