Quarterback Brock Purdy is considered good to go against New England in Week 4 after emerging from a loss to the Rams with a sore back.Quarterback Brock Purdy, who came out of a 27-24 loss to the Los Angeles Rams with a sore back, headed to practice Wednesday without limitations as the 49ers began preparations to face the New England Patriots at Levi’s Stadium in Week 4.
Those who weren’t scheduled to practice were wide receiver Deebo Samuel and defensive tackle Javon Hargrave . Samuel is not expected to face the Patriots and Hargrave is likely out or the season and soon will be headed to injured reserve. Including Kittle, who was limited Wednesday, the 49ers have six players who are either sidelined, on injured reserve, on the physically unable to perform list or the non-football injury list that account for $52,267,477 of cap dollars. Their replacements in the lineup total $10,023,221 — a difference of $42,244,256.
