SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — Brock Purdy is trying to heal from injuries to his oblique and ribs and prepare for a trip to notoriously tough Seattle on a short week for the San Francisco 49ers. Purdy got injured on a scramble on the second drive of the game in the Niners’ 35-7 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but was able to stay in and threw two TD passes and ran for another score. Purdy said he was quite sore on Monday and is projected to be limited at a light practice on Tuesday.
