"I can tell you it was encouraging to see him practice, Lynch said Thursday about Purdy's limited session the previous day. That means he got out there and had some activity.

Brock Purdy participated in limited practice while rehabbing a right turf toe and remains day-to-day. Mac Jones is prepared to make a second consecutive start and is the leading candidate for the home opener against the Arizona Cardinals.

General manager John Lynch emphasized caution, noting Purdy still needs to show a response to practice and that the team has strategic reasons not to disclose its plans. Purdy could return after missing one game and remain available if needed.
