Analysis

Purdy had a season-low 159 yards on 21-for-28 passing during Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Seahawks, tossing a touchdown to WR Jauan Jennings but also throwing his eighth interception of the season. A health concern may now result in some practice limitations when the 49ers begin Week 12 prep Wednesday, but Shanahan calling him day-to-day indicates Purdy likely will be good to go this coming Sunday at Green Bay.

Analysis

Purdy did everything in his power to lift a shorthanded 49ers offense to victory with his arm and ability as a rusher. San Francisco's franchise quarterback fell short in his efforts, but fantasy managers benefited from his fourth rushing touchdown over a four-game span. Purdy's lone blemish Sunday was an interception that was deflected on an incredible leaping effort by Seattle corner Devon Witherspoon. The 24-year-old Purdy and the 49ers will have to hit the road following a tough loss to face the Packers in Lambeau next Sunday.

Analysis

Purdy tossed one of his finer games of the season Sunday, committing no turnovers while producing just one punting scenario on offense. The 24-year-old benefited from the return of Christian McCaffrey (Achilles), who not only keeps defenses honest with his rushing ability but also provides another weapon for his quarterback as a receiver. Purdy set a new season high in terms of passing yards while coming just 15 yards short of his career-best mark. The Iowa State product will attempt to build off of this strong performance in a home tilt against the Seahawks next Sunday.

Analysis

Purdy carried San Francisco's offense on a night where two key players -- Deebo Samuel and Jordan Mason -- left the contest early due to injury. The 24-year-old Purdy pitched a clean outing with two touchdowns and no turnovers, the second time he has accomplished that feat in the last three weeks. The Iowa State standout is averaging 262.6 passing yards per game this season with 12 touchdowns to nine turnovers. The status of multiple star players on offense -- including running back Christian McCaffrey (Achilles) -- will determine whether Purdy will be a good or great fantasy play coming out of San Francisco's Week 9 bye when the team visits Tampa Bay on Nov. 10.

Analysis

Both starting quarterbacks in Sunday's Super Bowl LVIII rematch struggled passing the ball against tough opposing defenses, combining for no touchdown passes and five interceptions. Patrick Mahomes wound up earning the victory for his team, but Purdy had the superior fantasy day with two trips to the end zone as a rusher. The latter also lost his top two receivers to injury at halftime, which helps excuse the horrific passing performance. Purdy was coming off of his best statistical game of the season in Week 6, so fantasy managers shouldn't panic ahead of a much softer matchup against the Cowboys next Sunday.

Analysis

Coming off a two-interception game and back-to-back contests with a sub-56.0 completion percentage, Purdy enjoyed a resurgent night that featured his second three-touchdown tally of the season. The third-year signal-caller's scoring tosses came in the second, third and fourth quarters, with Purdy connecting with Deebo Samuel (76 yards) and George Kittle (10 and nine yards). Purdy recorded completions to seven different pass catchers overall, and he'll likely need to turn in an even higher-caliber performance when he and the 49ers tangle with the Chiefs at home in a Week 7 Super Bowl rematch Sunday, Oct. 20.

Analysis

Purdy and San Francisco's offense had the team in position to win this favored contest before a horrific second half saw the home team fall by one point. Both NFC West clubs sit at 2-3 now, but the 49ers were expected to be championship contenders while the Cardinals are in the midst of a rebuild. This was easily Purdy's worst fantasy game through five weeks, but fantasy managers shouldn't panic about their quarterback given Purdy's success last season, plus the plethora of weapons the 49ers can offer when healthy.

Analysis

Purdy and his teammates took care of business in a favorable home matchup Sunday. The end results were modest from a fantasy perspective, with San Francisco passing for just one touchdown in the lopsided team win. Purdy was dealing with back soreness coming off of last week's three-touchdown performance, which might help explain his poor completion percentage (56.0 percent) compared to his 69 percent completion rate in two-plus years as a pro. The rising star continues to be a strong fantasy option heading into another favorable home matchup against the Cardinals on Sunday.

Analysis

Shanahan revealed Monday that Purdy was tending to back soreness in the wake of this past Sunday's road loss to the Rams, and while he considered the quarterback day-to-day, the injury won't affect Purdy's practice reps to kick off Week 4 prep. Purdy thus is in line to continue leading the 49ers offense Sunday against the Patriots, but the skill-position players available to him remain up in the air. Running back Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) is on injured reserve for the foreseeable future, wideout Deebo Samuel (calf) won't practice Wednesday, and tight end George Kittle (hamstring) will be a limited participant, which leaves receivers Brandon Aiyuk and Jauan Jennings and running back Jordan Mason as the 49ers' healthy weapons for the time being.
