After further testing, the San Francisco 49ers' fears became a reality, as quarterback Brock Purdy has a "complete tear" of the UCL in his throwing elbow, according to NFL Network.

Initial tests after Purdy was injured in the NFC Championship loss to the Philadelphia Eagles showed a UCL injury, but the Niners were unaware of the severity.

The injury to Purdy came when he was looking to make a pass downfield, but Eagles edge rusher Haason Reddick, who is having quite the playoff thus far, hit him before his arm came forward, causing a fumble and switching the field in favor of the home team.

With Purdy and Johnson suffering significant injuries that sent them to the sideline, the Eagles had their way with the 49ers in the 31-7 blowout to head to the Super Bowl to face the Kansas City Chiefs.

Leading up to this game, Purdy’s 7-0 record and chemistry with the offense began speculation that he would start for Shanahan next season, though Lance was the team’s third overall pick in the 2021 Draft.

Brock Purdy #13 of the San Francisco 49ers looks to pass against the Dallas Cowboys during the first quarter in the NFC Divisional Playoff game at Levi's Stadium on January 22, 2023 in Santa Clara, California.
