Brock Purdy (elbow) questionable to return for 49ers in Championship Game; Josh Johnson in at quarterback
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy is considered questionable to return Sunday in the NFC Championship Game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Purdy injured his throwing arm when Haason Reddick strip-sacked him. After initially walking on the field with the offense for its second series, he had a talk with Kyle Shanahan and removed himself from action. Journeyman Josh Johnson is the next man up for San Francisco.
Before exiting, Purdy completed 2-of-2 passes for 19 yards. With the aforementioned fumble, he had -1.24 FanDuel points.
