49ers’ Kyle Shanahan Gives Latest Update on Brock Purdy & Ricky Pearsall Injuries

The San Francisco 49ers haven’t exactly been dealt a fantastic hand in the 2025 campaign, but they have managed to weather a storm of injuries and post a 6-3 record through their first nine games. If the team intends to go on a deep playoff run, getting healthy before the regular season comes to a close could be crucial.

For the past couple of weeks, quarterback Brock Purdy and wide receiver Ricky Pearsall have both been sidelined, and the team has been relatively unclear about their potential return dates. However, ahead of Week 11, head coach Kyle Shanahan provided some encouraging injury updates regarding these key players that should catch the attention of 49ers fans.

### Kyle Shanahan Issues Encouraging Injury Updates on Brock Purdy and Ricky Pearsall

Considering the numerous injuries the Niners are currently managing, having Purdy and Pearsall back soon would be a huge boost for the team. While Mac Jones has performed admirably under center during Purdy’s extended absence, it’s clear that San Francisco’s ceiling is higher when their franchise quarterback is leading the offense and connecting with receivers like Pearsall.

Purdy has been dealing with a persistent turf toe injury, limiting him to just two games this season. Meanwhile, Pearsall has missed five games due to a knee injury. Despite missing these important contributors along with several other key offensive players, the 49ers have managed to stay competitive. Still, to emerge from the extremely tough NFC West division, they will need all hands on deck.

### Positive Signs Ahead of Week 11

Over the last few weeks, Purdy has shown signs of progress toward returning, while Pearsall’s status remained less certain. That changed on Wednesday when Shanahan revealed encouraging news: Purdy has a shot to play in Week 11 if he continues to make progress, and Pearsall has been cleared by the team’s trainers to return to practice.

Yahoo Sports shared Shanahan’s updates on X, stating, “Brock Purdy ‘should have a good chance to play’ if he continues making progress this week. Ricky Pearsall is ‘healthy and good to go’ according to trainers.”

Both players participated in limited practices on Wednesday, marking an important step forward given the amount of time they have missed. The next few days will be critical—not only must Purdy and Pearsall remain on the field, but they also need to prove they are physically ready to compete at game speed.

### Looking Ahead

If Brock Purdy and Ricky Pearsall can return to full health and contribute in Week 11, the 49ers’ offense will receive a significant boost. Their return would not only strengthen the team’s depth but also improve their chances in the highly competitive NFC West division as the season moves toward the playoffs.

San Francisco fans will be watching closely, hopeful that these injury comebacks can ignite a strong finish to the regular season and fuel a deep postseason run.

Stranger Things 5 trailer: Cast teases “next-level action’ and a “chaotic start” in the final season

The lights are flickering once again in Hawkins. Shadows crawl, memories linger, and the air crackles with the kind of electricity only Netflix’s most beloved world can summon. Netflix invites us back to the Upside Down as the trailer for *Stranger Things* Season 5 drops.

### Stranger Things 5 Trailer: Cast Teases “Next-Level Action” and a “Chaotic Start” in the Final Season

Counting down to the final chapter, the cast, creators, and executive producers of *Stranger Things* set the stage for what’s to come and where we find our characters at the start of the season, as told to Tudum.

Millie Bobby Brown (Eleven) shares,
> “Eleven is in training mode. She’s in a warrior state, which is the first time you see Eleven like that at the beginning of a season. As for her mindset, all she is thinking about is protecting her friends. Her friends are her chosen family, so she will do whatever it takes to protect them and we’re going to see that.”

Gaten Matarazzo (Dustin) adds,
> “Dustin is kind of in a bit of a funk. I think everybody probably is considering the state that Hawkins is in, and it’s getting a little bit harder for the gang to keep all the pieces together. We’re all dealing with the day-to-day issues of what it is to try to keep everybody safe and figure out where Vecna is, while having a lot of unpacked baggage from the events in the previous season.”

Caleb McLaughlin (Lucas) shares,
> “It’s always been in the beginning of a season that everything is all good, but this is the first season we come into it and the stakes are the same as where we left off. We haven’t defeated Vecna and the problem is still there. We’re still trying to figure it out and we may not be able to figure it out, so you feel that burden on Lucas as well as everyone else on the show. Everyone is on edge and we’re all just trying to keep hope alive.”

Noah Schnapp (Will) asserts,
> “Will is back in Hawkins this season. He was out of Hawkins for the last season, so now we’re seeing the effects of him being back in that realm. We kind of hit the ground running right away this season, which is really exciting and not how we’ve started any other season. Everyone is all in one place and we all have the same objective.”

Sadie Sink (Max) explains,
> “We [ended] Season 4 in a tough place for Max. Her final moments were her in a hospital bed. Eleven was searching for her in the void and couldn’t find her, so Max is definitely not the way she once was. There’s still a small glimmer of hope, though, and her friends are hanging on to that.”

Finn Wolfhard (Mike) says,
> “Mike is back in leadership mode, and he’s kind of taken it more upon himself to help plan out these missions, and he and the whole gang are devoted to finding Vecna and ending this.”

Ross Duffer (Co-Creator, Executive Producer, Writer, Director) shares,
> “I think what’s unique about this season is that it starts a little bit in chaos because our heroes ultimately lost at the end of Season 4. We usually set up their normal life and how they’re going about school, and then we introduce the supernatural element. But in this case, this season is sprinting from the start.”

Matt Duffer (Co-Creator, Executive Producer, Writer, Director) adds,
> “They’re not experiencing normal life. Nothing in Hawkins is normal anymore. Their movement is restricted, and there are Big Brother cameras everywhere. So not only are they active, their everyday, normal lives are anything but.”

Shawn Levy (Executive Producer & Director) concludes,
> “The action is next level, the visual effects are next level, but I’m also happy to say that the emotional center remains the same. And part of the magic of this show is that even as we evolve, even as the storytelling becomes more epic, it’s always anchored in these characters that we love.”

Chancellor faces calls to axe stamp duty on shares

Rachel Reeves is facing increasing pressure to abolish stamp duty on share trading in an effort to revive the UK stock market. Concerns are growing that more companies may continue to leave London for rival financial hubs such as New York unless decisive action is taken.

The Chancellor is currently considering introducing a stamp duty break for investors purchasing newly listed shares, aiming to encourage more firms to list on the UK stock market. However, there are rising calls to eliminate the 0.5% levy on share trading entirely.

Charles Hall of Peel Hunt supports scrapping the tax but believes Labour is unlikely to take such a step given the current state of the economy. He also pointed to AstraZeneca’s plans for a full listing in New York as a “proper warning shot” about the risks facing the London market.
