49ers to start Jones vs. Falcons; Purdy out again
The San Francisco 49ers have announced that Mac Jones will start as their quarterback against the Atlanta Falcons, with Brock Purdy's return from a toe injury being delayed for at least another week. Head coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed that Purdy, who has been sidelined since suffering the injury in the team's playoff victory over the Seattle Seahawks, will not be available for the upcoming game against the Falcons. This marks the second consecutive week that Purdy will miss, as the 49ers look to secure a spot in the playoffs. The decision to start Jones, who had previously taken over the starting role earlier this season, comes as the team continues to manage Purdy's recovery process. The 49ers are hoping that Purdy will be able to return to the field in the near future, but they are prioritizing his health and ensuring he is fully recovered before allowing him to play.
