Rotowire) Purdy (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Green Bay, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. Analysis: Coach Kyle Shanahan announced Friday that Brandon Allen will be the starting quarterback for Week 12. GM John Lynch downplayed Purdy's quick departure from Thursday's practice, but Shanahan acknowledged Friday afternoon that things didn't go well during the session, noting that the level of pain in Purdy's right shoulder surprised both team and player (per David Lombardi of SFStandard.com). Shanahan hasn't commented on expectations for Purdy beyond this weekend, with the next chance to play being a Week 13 contest at Buffalo on Sunday, Dec. 1.

Sure doesn't feel that way. Is it his throwing shoulder that's injured?

Niners are done.
They are likely losing against GB and if they are completely out of the playoffs in a couple weeks they’ll probably just shut Purdy down. This sucks. He was supposed to be my QB2 in a start 2QB dynasty league this year behind Stroud but he’s actually been my QB1. Step on up, Geno.

Yep, I'm backtracking on my statement. This definitely could be a multi-week thing or even season ending.
Hard to rule anything out, but he had a clean MRI so I suspect it's not that bad.

Eyeing week 13 to return
21 seconds agoSan Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy (shoulder) has been ruled out for Week 12, but the team believes he'll be able to play next weekend against the Buffalo Bills. Purdy's progress was inconsistent earlier this week, and the team did think he'd be able to suit up against the Green Bay Packers before ruling him out. Fantasy managers should expect all Niners playmakers to take a step back in terms of fantasy production. Meanwhile, interim starter Brandon Alle will rank as a low-end QB2.--Andersen Pickard - RotoBaller

Hard to trust anything Niners report after CMC

Thought they were claiming the worst part of that would be over by tomorrow morning?

I've heard everything from that to 6 feet lol.
I'll see what they're saying at noon I guess.

If they do, it's CMC doing the heavy lifting. I think next week is their Get Right Game vs Chicago.
Purdy would be a hard start, dealing with a bum shoulder in the cold.

9ers banged up everywhere, traveling across the country and now a cold/snowy game. Taking the Bills

Agreed- Buffalo at home is a good advantage this time of year. Plus the Bills are playing like one of the best teams in the league lately.
SF is probably looking at Detroit and Philly and realized...yeah...maybe this is not our year lol

Even if Purdy's arm doesn't fall off, this is a week to definitely bench him if you have another QB that is breathing.
I agree with this. Purdy is not great in inclement weather even when he and his team are healthy.
I used Buffalo in Circa Survivor, what a fun night
