00:00How about an NFL injury update?
00:04Would that be a longer lived to show an FST NFL injury update?
00:08Probably.
00:09I'm certainly a longer show.
00:10Let's run with that.
00:12Let's run.
00:13Brock Purdy.
00:14He's out with a shoulder issue.
00:15So you could tell this was going in that direction all week because it was so shady.
00:19Like, Oh, he's, you know, the practice is closed and no one knows what's going on.
00:23Well, he's not practicing.
00:24The MRI is fine.
00:25Everyone, everything's going to be fine.
00:27So now we'll get an idea of how special Brock Purdy is.
00:31Let's see it.
00:32You know, cause we've seen other guys step in and run this offense.
00:34Okay.
00:35Brandon Allen's going to be the guy that gets a shot this week.
00:37So he knows the offense.
00:38Again, I think you see a ton of Christian McCaffrey in this game, which is a really
00:41good thing.
00:43But the 49ers have had their share of injuries all season, holdouts, injuries, Superbowl
00:48hangover.
00:49It's all real thing.
00:50Again.
00:51It's so funny to me that every single year, Matt, the same thing happens.
00:54The team that loses the Superbowl, they have the first or second best odds next year to
00:58win the Superbowl.
00:59Right.
01:00And it never happens in the last 25 years.
01:02It's happened one time, Tom Brady.
01:03That's it.
01:04Tom Brady did it.
01:05They also Superbowl came back and now we got there, but one teams don't even get back there
01:10when it happens.
01:11And the more tragic ending close over time feeling Superbowl loss, the worse the team
01:18plays the next year.
01:20And like, that's where the 49ers are now.
01:21I still think they have a chance with all these injuries to beat the Green Bay Packers.
01:24And I know that's an unpopular opinion, but we've seen a lot of weird, a lot of strange
01:28happen in the NFL season.
01:29And that would be it.
01:30Now, if you have Debo Samuel, if you have John Jennings and those players, look, you're
01:35going to start Debo.
01:36No matter what, you're going to start this next guy, George Kittle, no matter what.
01:38Now he wasn't available last week.
01:40He is going to be starting this week.
01:41So we will continue to get you updated there if anything changes.
01:44But let me tell you, man, like we're in a spot here where a 49ers desperate for a win.
01:52They need it.
01:53It's got to happen right now.
01:54So 49ers all hands on deck.
01:57I don't want to be dramatic or hyperbolic, but it's kind of your season 49ers.
02:03Not me.
02:04Surely not.
02:05But when you think about it, let's say Arizona wins today, right?
02:11And the 49ers lose.
02:12That's a big separation.
02:13Now we're talking about three, four game.
02:15Like we're talking about like separating from the pack a little bit.
02:17That's not where you want to be if you're the 49ers.
02:20So this is a bit of desperation.
02:21So let's see if Kyle Shanahan, who sometimes a little too smart for his own good, can actually
02:27rally this team and get him focused and go out there and pick up a big W on the road
02:30after blowing a big game at home.
02:32Also on the injury update list too, I know we don't always talk about defensive injuries,
02:37but some of them matter more than others, especially when you're talking about players
02:40that are good corners.
02:41So Christian Gonzalez with a hip is going to play against the Dolphins.
02:44So we'll see how that works out for them.
02:47Malik Neighbors with the groin is expected to play.
02:50There was some concern that he might miss this week, but that seems to be going in the
02:53right direction.
02:54How healthy he is, we don't know.
02:56Adam Thielen with the hamstring.
02:57He should play this week against the Chiefs.
03:00So we'll keep an eye on that one too.
03:02Does Adam Thielen come back and work a ton?
03:04Because last year, Bryce Young's favorite target was Adam Thielen.
03:08So if you're desperate for a streamer in a league, maybe this is a guy you could start.
03:12Keenan Allen with the ankle is also going to play.
03:14But again, I keep mentioning Kayla Williams cannot get anything right in the last four
03:18weeks.
03:19So I don't know if that's something you want to play.
03:21And also with the Bears, DeAndre Swift with the groin injury is also going to play this
03:25week.
03:26So those are the guys right now that are at least trending in the right direction.
03:29It'll look like they're going to be in and active for week 12.
