Is Brock Purdy playing tonight? 49ers QB's status revealed for Week 6 game vs Seahawks

Brock Purdy is in his second season as the full-time starting quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers. The 2024 Pro Bowler is looking to guide the team to another deep postseason run and a long-overdue Super Bowl win in the Kyle Shanahan era.

Let's examine Purdy's availability for the 49ers' crucial Thursday Night Football game against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 6.

Is Brock Purdy playing tonight?

Yes, Brock Purdy is playing in tonight's game. The 49ers' star quarterback is entered without an injury designation and will start the game, barring any unfortunate occurrences before kickoff.

Purdy has been relatively free from injury this season aside from in the immediate aftermath of his team's Week 3 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Purdy had an MRI on his back but thankfully didn't miss any games due to injury.

However, the 49ers will need at least four players for tonight's game: defensive lineman Jordan Elliott (knee), linebacker Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles (calf), safety Talanoa Hufanga (wrist), and kicker Jake Moody (right ankle).

A couple of players are listed as questionable, namely wide receiver Chris Conley (oblique) and cornerback Charvarius Ward (knee). The other players on the team's injury report have no designations leading up to tonight's matchup.

Brock Purdy and Co. haven't had the best of starts to the 2024 NFL season. The 49ers have lost three of the first five games, putting the team in the hot seat in what's shaping up to be an interesting NFC playoff race. The 49ers' losses came against the Minnesota Vikings, Los Angeles Rams, and New England Patriots.

Yes, Kyle Shanahan's side has dealt with numerous injuries in the first month of the season. However, there's a reason why San Francisco is regarded as one of the deepest and best-coached teams in the NFL.

The 49ers will have the chance to bounce back against the Seahawks on Thursday Night at the Lumen Field. The Seahawks are fresh off a disappointing loss to the New York Giants, so they could be in better form entering the game.

Expect Brock Purdy to rack up passing yards in the game as he looks for Brandon Aiyuk, George Kittle, Deebo Samuel, and more in this crunch TNF matchup.
