While reports suggest a 2-5 week absence, GM John Lynch stated the team will evaluate Purdy's status week-to-week. Lynch expressed optimism about the injury's prognosis and confirmed that Mac Jones will start in Purdy's place. Purdy's injury occurred after a strong Week 1 performance where he threw for 277 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions.
