San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy is expected to miss six months after suffering a torn UCL in Sunday’s loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Purdy suffered a complete tear of the UCL in his throwing elbow and is expected to undergo surgery, reports NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. The 23-year-old reportedly is still seeking second medical opinions on his elbow and hopes to avoid Tommy John surgery.
