Purdy & Kittle set to return to 49ers


The injury-riddled San Francisco 49ers welcomed two key players back to practice when quarterback Brock Purdy and tight end George Kittle participated on Wednesday on a limited basis.

Purdy has missed the past two games and four of the last five with a toe injury. But he was able to join practice for the first time since reinjuring his toe in a Week 4 loss to Jacksonville.

Mac Jones, who has gone 3-1 as Purdy's replacement, also was limited with injuries to his knee and oblique but was able to do more than Purdy at practice, according to coach Kyle Shanahan.
