Brock Purdy, who refrained from throwing during Wednesday's practice due to a shoulder injury, resumed light throwing to team staff on Thursday. However, reporters noted the quarterback exiting the field during the media's open practice window, leaving his status for Sunday uncertain. Purdy sustained the injury during Sunday's loss to the Seattle Seahawks.
"Brock Purdy, from everything I've been told, should be fine for this game on Sunday against the Packers," NFL insider Tom Pelissero reported. "He's got a sore shoulder. I know he dove—I'm not sure if that's the play—but he dove for the pylon in the game last week, might have landed on it a little bit. But it's not anything that's like a major injury."
Purdy was officially listed as a limited practice participant on Thursday.
Meanwhile, neither defensive end Nick Bosa nor left tackle Trent Williams were spotted on the practice field, mirroring their absence on Wednesday. Bosa is dealing with a new hip/oblique injury sustained against Seattle, while Williams continues to nurse an ankle issue. Both players could be game-time decisions.
As expected, running back Christian McCaffrey returned to practice Thursday after sitting out Wednesday, a planned rest day as he manages his recovery from Achilles tendinitis.
Tight end George Kittle, limited on Wednesday due to a hamstring injury that sidelined him against the Seahawks, participated again Thursday. Kittle has expressed confidence that he will suit up against Green Bay.
"Very excited," Kittle said on Wednesday. "Can't pass up playing the Packers. So, no, I will be out there, for sure. Get to practice today—it'll be very fun and exciting."
Below are Thursday's practice participation reports for both the 49ers and Packers, which were provided by the 49ers Communications staff.
