Brock Purdy for MVP? For real? He’s among the 49ers nominated for midseason honors (paywall)
“As it stands now, Purdy’s toughest competitors for the award appear to be Burrow, who leads the NFL with 23 touchdown passes, and Allen, who’s thrown 12 touchdowns and rushed for nine. Look for others, including Green Bay quarterback Jordan Love, who had a 153.2 passer rating Sunday, to enter the mix in the second half of the season.”

2 new starters pop up on the 49ers injury report
“Both starting cornerbacks missed their second practice in a row for the San Francisco 49ers: Deommodore Lenoir (foot) and Renardo Green (back). That leaves Ephesians Prysock, Siran Neal, and Jack Jones from the practice squad as the only healthy corners. Nickel Upton Stout (shoulder) practiced with a blue non-contact jersey.”
