Brock Purdy May Return for 49ers vs Jaguars: “I’m Feeling Better Every Day”

Brock Purdy May Return for 49ers vs Jaguars: “I’m Feeling Better Every Day”

San Francisco, September 26, 2025

After two weeks sidelined due to a turf toe injury, Brock Purdy – QB1 of the San Francisco 49ers – is on the verge of a major opportunity to return for the matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. In the latest practice session, Purdy displayed flexibility, executing throws and footwork with ease, seemingly free of pain.

Signs point to 49ers sitting Brock Purdy for the second week in a row

“I’m feeling better every day,” Purdy shared with the media. “My toe is recovering well, and I’m more confident when stepping and throwing. I’m still being closely monitored, but all signs are positive. If I get to play, I’ll do everything to bring a win to the team.”

Head coach Kyle Shanahan and the coaching staff remain cautious, emphasizing that Purdy will be a “game-time decision” – the final call will only be made just before kickoff. In Purdy’s absence, Mac Jones stepped in and secured two consecutive victories, helping the 49ers maintain an undefeated 3-0 record. However, Purdy, with his synergy with the offensive system, is still considered the “key” to the team’s lofty ambitions.

Additionally, the return of veteran WR Demarcus Robinson after a suspension, along with Ricky Pearsall resuming practice, provides Purdy with more options if he plays. On the other hand, Brandon Aiyuk remains sidelined, while Jauan Jennings is still recovering from an ankle injury.

Amid the offensive lineup’s ongoing adjustments, Purdy’s return is seen as a vital morale boost for the entire team. He affirmed: “I don’t want to keep my teammates waiting any longer. This is a critical moment, and if given the chance, I’ll take the field with all my heart.”

With Nick Bosa out for the season due to an ACL injury, the 49ers desperately need a spark. And Brock Purdy’s return is exactly what all of San Francisco is hoping for.

Gates Open: 11:00 AM ET · Parking Lots: 9:00 AM ET Tickets: Still available via Ticketmaster, SeatGeek, or StubHub (get-in price starting ~$75) 🔑 KEY STORYLINES New Orleans Saints (4-6): Battling to stay alive in the NFC South after a tough 27-20 loss to the Falcons in Week 10, QB Jake Haener stepped up in relief (245 yards, 2 TD in Week 11 vs. Browns), but the offense ranks 22nd in PPG (19.8) amid Derek Carr's finger injury (questionable, could return). RB Alvin Kamara is a beast (950 rushing yards, 8 TD), with WR Chris Olave adding spark (850 receiving yards), but turnovers kill us (15 given away, worst in NFC). Defense is top-10 in sacks (28) but vulnerable vs. run (4.8 yards/carry allowed); injuries: LB Demario Davis (hamstring, day-to-day), DE Carl Granderson (biceps, IR). Home record: 2-2; we've won 3 of last 5 at the Dome, but need to crush this rivalry to build momentum. Atlanta Falcons (5-5): Tying for first in the NFC South after a gritty 27-20 divisional win over the Saints in Week 10, QB Kirk Cousins threw for 300+ yards last week but the run game sputtered (3.2 yards/carry). Offense ranks 12th in total yards (345/game), led by RB Bijan Robinson (900 rushing yards, 7 TD) and rookie WR Ladd McConkey (700 yards); defense is middling (18th success rate), leaky vs. pass (260+ yards allowed lately). Injuries: S Jessie Bates III (shoulder, questionable), EDGE Matthew Judon (elbow, out); road record: 2-3; they've covered 3-2 ATS away but struggle in NOLA (0-3 last 3 here). Head-to-Head: Falcons lead all-time 53-51 (26-24 in NOLA); last meeting: Falcons 27-20 win in Week 10 2025. ATL has won 4 of last 6, but series is always intense (average margin: 7.1 points); 3 playoff clashes (Saints 26-23 OT in 1991 Wild Card). ⚠️ SIGNIFICANCE OF THE GAME Saints (+3 favorites, O/U 47) aim to flip the script on our rivals and climb NFC South (72% win prob.); win pushes us to 5-6 and keeps wild-card dreams flickering (9th seed). Falcons (+135 ML) seek sweep for division lead; upset would crush our spirits. Spotlight on Kamara's revenge vs. ATL's front; experts lean NO but predict thriller (Over 7-3 in NO's last 10 homes). 📱 FOLLOW THE GAME Live Updates: Saints.com, Falcons.com, NFL App Social Media: @Saints · @AtlantaFalcons Highlights & Stats: NFL+ and the official team apps Who Dat faithful – ready to roar at the Dome and send the Falcons packing?
