Protocol
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy is in the concussion protocol, putting his status in doubt for this week’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Coach Kyle Shanahan said Purdy reported symptoms on the flight home after Monday night’s loss at Minnesota and was placed in the protocol.
Purdy is feeling better Wednesday and will be able to participate in a portion of San Francisco’s walkthrough practice but will still have to clear several protocols to play against Cincinnati on Sunday.
“He definitely has plenty of time,” Shanahan said. “He just has to go through the process.”
