The San Francisco 49ers<\/a> QB’s UCL surgery, stemming from the injury suffered in the NFC Championship Game, was delayed once but ultimately successful. The question is whether Purdy’s elbow will be ready in time to compete with Trey Lance<\/a> and Sam Darnold<\/a> for starter reps in training camp.<\/p>\n

The 49ers QB noted that he’s already undergoing rehab with physical therapist Keith Kocher. Purdy is wearing a large elbow brace designed to allow movement to ensure his arm retains mobility post-surgery, instead of getting a cast.

From there, you can start opening it up to help with your range of motion,” Purdy said of the brace. “It is just to keep your arm safe when you’re out walking around or doing therapy.

Out in public it looks like I have a robotic arm”, he adds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
