With a little over eight minutes remaining against the Baltimore Ravens on Monday Night Football, Brock Purdy jogged off the field to sideline with an apparent injury. After heading into the blue medical tent on the sideline, No. 2 quarterback Sam Darnold entered the game on Christmas evening.
After being evaluated, Purdy was ruled as questionable to return due to a stinger injury. After firing a touchdown pass in relief of Purdy, Darnold remained in on the following drive.

Purdy exited the 49ers’ recent 42-19 win over the Arizona Cardinals last week with the same injury. However, Purdy only missed three plays before quickly returning to the contest.
