Mac Jones Expected to Play in Week 6
Mac Jones (knee, oblique) is expected to play and make his second straight start against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with Brock Purdy (toe) missing his fourth game of the year, according to ESPN's Nick Wagoner. Jones was limited in practice all week with left-knee and oblique injuries, but head coach Kyle Shanahan said on Thursday that the former Patriots QB is slated to start on Sunday. The 27-year-old's knee injury dates back to a preseason game before he aggravated it in Week 3. Jones strained his oblique on the final offensive snap in last Thursday's win over the Los Angeles Rams. He's clearly not 100% going into Week 6, making a repeat of his 300-yard performance in Week 5 unlikely, especially with receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) out for a second straight game. Consider Jones a low-end QB2 this weekend.
