San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy has opened up on his mindset in practice as he continues his recovery after undergoing surgery on a serious elbow injury
Brock Purdy has explained why he is not afraid of suffering a re occurrence of his elbow injury after returning for the San Francisco 49ers.
The Niners quarterback has spent the last five months recovering from undergoing surgery on an elbow injury. Purdy sustained the injury during the NFC Championship game loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on January 29.
In March, Purdy underwent surgery on an ulnar collateral ligament injury, which went successfully. Months later, he is back taking part in pre-season training camp for the Niners.
With Purdy yet to play a competitive game since suffering the injury, there is doubt over who will be the Niners’ starting quarterback going into the 2023 NFL regular season. Purdy has Trey Lance and new signing Sam Darnold alongside him in the QB room and will be competing for the starting spot in the team.
