The 49ers pivoted back to Brock Purdy despite an elbow injury after fourth-string quarterback Josh Johnson was ruled out with a concussion.
The famed Mr. Irrelevant left the first quarter of the NFC Championship game between the 49ers and Eagles with an elbow injury. As his 49ers trailed 7-0 early on, the team inserted fourth-string quarterback and well-traveled Josh Johnson, whom they signed in early December after Jimmy Garoppolo’s season-ending foot injury.
After receiving a hit from close range that saw Johnson fall and bang the back of his head, Purdy returned in the third quarter and has thrown a single pass since re-entering, as of early in the fourth quarter. Johnson subsequently was deemed out with a concussion late in the third quarter.
