Brock Purdy has lost two games in a row, he may or may not have an injured throwing shoulder and his record in his last 16 starts is 8-8. Despite all that, the 49ers still want to give him a multi-year contract extension this offseason.

With Christian McCaffrey and Jordan Mason on injured reserve, Guerendo made his first NFL start against the Bears. If he can’t play, the next in line is Patrick Taylor Jr., a veteran in his fourth season who had 25 yards in seven carries against the Bears and a 3-yard touchdown run.
