So, what's the deal with Brock Purdy's elbow? Coach Kyle Shanahan told the press that Purdy's arm isn't feeling too hot, with some nerve issues in his right elbow. They'll know more after some tests on Tuesday. Shanahan wasn’t sure what exactly went wrong, but he wasn't thrilled about it either. The worry is real, especially when your star quarterback is playing in a game that doesn't really matter.
Purdy had a rough night, throwing a couple of interceptions. Shanahan admitted that the ball sailed on Purdy during those throws. Seems like he misread the free safety's position. According to some replays, the Lions played into the 49ers' tendencies, making a smart call on defense.
Purdy himself said his arm felt like it was on fire. He tried throwing a few passes on the sidelines but couldn't. He did have tests on his UCL, but those came back fine.
Let's see what the MRI says on Tuesday. We'll get updates once Shanahan or a national reporter fills us in.
