49ers quarterback Brock Purdy made a successful return to the lineup against the Cardinals on Sunday.

“No, I didn’t even think about it, honestly, in the game or anything,” Purdy said, via 49ersWebzone.com about his toe injury. “At practice and everything, that’s where I tested it all out. I’m like, at practice, rolling out, ‘All right, do I feel it, do I not?’ No, I don’t, I feel great. And then come [game-time] when I warmed up and everything, I didn’t even think about it. It felt great. Throughout the game and stuff, I was able to do everything — scramble, keepers, roll-outs, step up in the pocket. I played quarterback.”

Purdy had been out since aggravating a toe injury in Week 4, but he didn’t show many signs of rust while completing 19-of-26 passes for 200 yards and three touchdowns in a 41-22 win. The 49ers took a cautious approach with Purdy’s return to minimize further issues with the injury, the story went on to say. The Niners look to be in good shape, hosting the Panthers this coming week and then traveling to Cleveland before a Week 14 bye.

The NFL will review the Jalen Ramsey-Ja'Marr Chase punching/alleged spitting incident.

Ramsey was ejected for punching Chase, but Ramsey said after the game Chase spit on him. There are some close-up views of what appears to be spit, according to Rapoport, but Rapoport also said the referee doesn't believe it got to that level. Of course, the Eagles Jalen Carter was ejected for spitting on Dak Prescott before the first snap of the teams game back in Week 1, so it's possible Chase gets a game suspension if it's found he did spit on Ramsey.

Falcons WR Drake London is not believed to have suffered a major knee injury during Sunday's loss to the Panthers.

London suffered the injury late in the fourth quarter. The Falcons went on to lose in overtime. London will find out Monday just how long he'll miss. It's the latest in what's become a nightmare season for the Falcons. Sunday was their 5th straight loss to drop to 3-7 and Michael Penix Jr. also was banged up in the game and Kirk Cousins had to step in.

Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers is believed to have a "slight break" in his left, non-throwing wrist following Sunday's win over the Bengals.

Rodgers will undergo further testing Monday. The injury doesn't appear to be serious, but it is possible that Mason Rudolph will get the start next week against the Bears. Rodgers suffered the injury just before halftime. Rudolph played the second half and went 12/16 for 127 yards and a touchdown. We'll have more of an idea on Monday what Rodgers' timeframe will look like.

Titans interim head coach Mike McCoy told reporters after Sunday’s loss to the Texans that WR Calvin Ridley suffered a broken fibula and will miss the rest of the season.

Very unfortunate for Ridley, who just returned from a hamstring injury from Week 6. He left early in the game after seeing just one target. It’s been a long season for the Titans. They’ll move forward with rookies Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike helping lead the charge.

Packers running Josh Jacobs left Sunday’s game against the Giants with a knee injury.

Jacobs went down in the fist quarter, initially came back for a brief time before heading back to the locker room. He was originally listed as questionable to return before being ruled out for the remainder of the game. Jacobs rushed seven times for 40 yards. Emmanuel Wilson has taken over and has scored a touchdown.

Falcons quarterback Michael Penix left Sunday’s game against the Panthers with a knee injury.

Kirk Cousins replaced Penix in the third quarter. Penix threw for 175 yards on 13/16 passing before exiting.

Packers quarterback Jordan Love is questionable to return with a left shoulder injury.

Love took a shot to his left shoulder as he was sliding. He went to the locker room shortly afterwards. Malik Willis is now in at quarterback for Green Bay.

Titans WR Calvin Ridley is questionable to return to Sunday’s game against the Texans after being carted off the field with an ankle injury.

This was Ridley’s first game back since Week 6, but unfortunately the return was short lived. He left in the first quarter. It’s back to Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike leading the charge.

The Broncos placed RB J.K. Dobbins on injured reserve with a foot injury.

The injury will require surgery and likely ends Dobbins’ season. He could be available if the Broncos make a run to the Super Bowl. Dobbins is set to enter free agency. RJ Harvey will step into the main role and Tyler Badie and Jaleel McLaughlin will spell him.
