Update: Josh Johnson (concussion) ruled out for 49ers in NFC Championship Game; Brock Purdy (elbow) remains at quarterback
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Josh Johnson will not return in the NFC Championship Game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
What It Means:
Brock Purdy left Sunday's game due to an elbow injury, which is making it hard for him to get any arm strength whatsoever. Johnson, the team's 4th-string quarterback, then suffered a concussion. Purdy will have the 49ers offense going forward, though they seem to only be able to run the football currently.
Before exiting, Johnson had completed 7-of-13 passes for 74 yards. He also had a fumble, posting 1.16 FanDuel points.
