Brock Purdy is a "long shot" to play for 49ers at Saints

Possible multi-week absence
More so because of the toe than left shoulder
Happened while scrambling and tackled on sideline

Is it a turf toe? Fractured toe? Dislocated toe? Which toe?

Does Brock have the body to take the rigors of the NFL week in and week out? I believe he can play at the NFL level, he's shown that. However I am far less convinnced that his body can take the rigor of playing at this level. Perhaps, just perhaps, that body is just too fragile. He seems to have had a lot of injuries over the last several year and with the OL the 49ers have, I only see more and more injuries coming for Mr. Purdy. This team a Super Bowl team? Nope they are not. Love the Niners have since 1972 but I have to say, this team is not an elite team and regardless of what other fans may think, they'll show they are not. Playoffs? Maybe because of their schedule but if they don't dominant most of the teams on their schedule which I don't expect they will, they will be a one and done in the playoffs.

I agree. I just don't think his body is capable of handling the grind of the NFL. I have a feeling this contract is not going to age well at all either.
But these injuries would be so much easier to stomach had they not blown those two SB's. At least we would be at 7 and greatest NFL franchise.
Now, the team is looking at a long rebuild after a good, but not great several years.

I don't think it's "does Brock have the physical body to handle the NFL?" I think it's does Brock have a legitimate OLine to block for him? He was pressured all game long this OLine is the problem not Brock's physical stature.
According to Kyle Shanahan, here's the play where #49ers QB Brock Purdy hurt his toe. Looks fairly innocuous in real time and can see why Purdy kept playing through it. Shanahan stopped short of calling it turf toe but indicated it's similar concept. pic.twitter.com/M7mgnrgFqr
