As expected, the San Francisco 49ers officially ruled Brock Purdy and Ricky Pearsall out. Here is the list of players who won’t suit up against the Houston Texans in Week 8:
QB Brock Purdy (toe)
WR Ricky Pearsall (knee)
C Jake Brendel (hamstring)
DE Yetur Gross-Matos (knee, hamstring)
DE Bryce Huff (hamstring)
The last time the 49ers had a road game was in Tampa Bay in Week 6. Purdy did not travel to that game. Brock will travel to Houston. Is that a tell that he’s progressing and getting closer? We won’t know until next Wednesday.
Here are the players who are questionable for Sunday:
CB Deommodore Lenoir (quad)
LB Luke Gifford (hamstring)
OL Spencer Burford (knee)
Both Gifford and Lenoir were upgraded to limited after not participating during Thursday’s session. Those were the only changes on the injury report.
There’s a possibility that Brandon Aiyuk’s practice window could open as early as next week. Kyle Shanahan said Aiyuk’s in “week-to-week” territory for opening his practice window. It’s no guarantee, but that Week 10 target date looks very real for Aiyuk.
