Patrick Schwarzenegger’s concern for Brock Purdy’s injured wrist

Patrick Shriver took to his Twitter and wrote, “Feel so bad for him. Hoping he’s alright,” posting alongside a Twitter thread by Complex Sports. In the five-second clip, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy was about to throw the ball when midway his arm was blocked by an opposition player. His wrist took the brunt of that collision. Reports say that Purdy might have to sit out the next game.

Complex Sports shared the video with the caption, “Brock Purdy injured his wrist on this play and didn’t return for the 49ers’ next drive”. This might be a concern for the 49ers since Purdy’s injury looks like a serious one. The commentary heard on the clip was, “Take a look here. This ball’s clearly hit… that is an open hand. That is a fumble”. A fumble in NFL happens when a player in possession of the ball loses control of it before he is down, scores, or out of bounds.

The severity of Brock Purdy’s injury and his chances of a comeback

He has injured his ulnar collateral ligament, but if it didn’t tear, then he might recover in six weeks. Christian McCaffrey and Kyle Juszczyk are the two backup quarterbacks for them. But Purdy’s recovery will be very closely monitored since it is of utmost importance that he plays the next season for his team 49ers. Purdy did enter the play once after his wrist injury and handed off for a draw play on third down that led to a 49ers punt.

At the moment, Purdy remained sidelined and his injury might be a nerve issue, leading to him being unable to feel his finger. Purdy has had health concerns before as well. Whatever the severity of Purdy’s injury may be, fans hope that he steadily recovers.
