San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan has confirmed that Brock Purdy and Ricky Pearsall will return for Week 11 against the Arizona Cardinals.

The 49ers do not have a competent pass defense. They possess good safety coverage, but their cornerbacks are the defense’s weak link. The Cardinals need to throw the 8–12-yard passes and then insert some 20-yard plays.

The 49ers are arguably the worst team the Cardinals will have faced since Jacoby Brissett took over as quarterback. In the last four weeks, the Cardinals have played the Indianapolis Colts, Green Bay Packers, Dallas Cowboys, and Seattle Seahawks, with three of those games being on the road.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy is officially back. 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said Thursday that Purdy is set to start against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday after recovering from a turf toe injury, per Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area.
