49ers | Brock Purdy leaning against Tommy John surgery

San Francisco 49ers QB Brock Purdy (elbow) appears likely to undergo the surgery that will place an internal brace in his elbow to address the torn ulnar collateral ligament he suffered in his right arm in the NFC Championship. The internal brace option is expected to sideline him for six months, whereas Tommy John surgery would likely force him to miss the entire 2023 season.
