49ers to be without Brock Purdy, Ricky Pearsall due to injuries in game vs Buccaneers

Backup quarterback Mac Jones, who is listed on the injury report as questionable, is expected to start for the 49ers. Jones hurt his oblique on his final play of last week's overtime win over the Los Angeles Rams and was limited all week in practice, but should be ready to play, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan.

Purdy, who signed a five-year, $265 million extension in the offseason, will miss his sixth game due to an injury in San Francisco's last 13 contests dating to last season.

While the 49ers certainly miss Purdy, they have not missed a beat with Jones, as they are 3-0 in his starts. 

The 27-year-old has completed 66.7% of his passes for 905 yards with six touchdowns and one interception in three games.

However, for the second straight week, Jones will not have Pearsall to throw to. Jauan Jennings, another one of Jones' top targets, is listed as questionable with injuries to his ankle and ribs that kept him out of last week's game.
