The San Francisco 49ers got some good news during the week ahead of their matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. Not only did Ricky Pearsall return to practice and is ready to go for Week 11, but so too is quarterback Brock Purdy.

Getting the franchise quarterback back is a huge boost for the 49ers. Mac Jones was solid in relief of Purdy, but having the $262 million quarterback back in the lineup is a positive for San Francisco.
But, there is always some concern when a player is first back from an extended absence. However, according to Fox Sports NFL insider Jay Glazer, Purdy is a “full-go” for the 49ers in Week 11.
Brock Purdy is a ‘full-go’ for 49ers in Week 11
Glazer’s report is great news for the 49ers and Purdy. Getting Purdy back is already a plus for the offense, but seeing that he has no limitations and is a full-go will help the San Francisco offense operate as best as possible.
This is the first week this season since Week 1 that the entire offense is back together. Purdy and Pearsall are back in the lineup, and Jauan Jennings, George Kittle, and Christian McCaffrey are all healthy and good to go.

In that Week 1 matchup, Purdy went 26 of 35 for 277 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions.

Against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 4, Purdy’s last time playing, he went 22 of 38 for 30 yards, two touchdowns, two interceptions, and one fumble.
But in that Week 4 matchup, Purdy was without Kittle and re-injured his toe, which led to the 49ers quarterback being held out for six weeks in a row.
Finally back in the lineup, Purdy won’t have any limitations. Purdy will also have Pearsall, Jennings, Kittle, and McCaffrey all good to go, as the 49ers offense is finally back together
