San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy is currently in the league’s concussion protocol, head coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Shanahan said Purdy first began exhibiting concussion-like symptoms during the team’s plane ride home following their 22-17 loss to the Minnesota Vikings on Monday night.<\/p>\n
If Purdy is unable to play in Week 8, veteran Sam Darnold would be in line to start Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals.<\/p>\n
