Purdy completed 25 of 34 passes for 205 yards with three touchdowns and one interception while adding five rushes for 29 yards during the 49ers' 27-7 Week 1 win over the Rams in Melbourne, Australia.

After an offseason in which the Rams' fearsome pass rush garnered plenty of headlines, Purdy navigated the season-opening matchup against his talented NFC West rival in nearly flawless fashion. The fifth-year signal-caller got off to a fast start with new No. 1 receiver Mike Evans, connecting with him on three occasions for 22 yards during a 15-play opening drive that culminated in a field goal. Purdy went on to hit Evans for a contested two-yard scoring strike early in the third quarter, and he sandwiched impressive touchdown tosses to Demarcus Robinson and Deebo Samuel of 39 and 15 yards, respectively, around that play. Purdy's early second-quarter interception on a pass intended for George Kittle did lead to the Rams' only touchdown, but as the final numbers indicate, the veteran quarterback did more than enough to atone. Purdy should have a strong chance of carrying over the season-opening momentum into Week 2, as a home date with what's expected to be a vulnerable Dolphins defense awaits on Sunday, Sept. 20.

Metcalf (undisclosed) wasn't listed on the Steelers' first Week 1 injury report Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.

Neither Metcalf nor fellow WR Michael Pittman (hamstring) showed up on Wednesday's report after both players missed a good portion of training camp and the entire preseason slate due to health concerns. Now that Metcalf is back to 100 percent, he and Pittman are ready to take on a good portion of QB Aaron Rodgers' passes Sunday against the Falcons.

Metcalf (undisclosed) is expected to be ready for Week 1 against the Falcons, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

Metcalf has dealt with an undisclosed injury for much of training camp, but he returned to practice last week and is expected to be ready when the games count. He'll be looking for a bounce-back 2026 season after he produced just 59 catches for 850 yards and six touchdowns across 15 regular-season contests last season, his first season with the Steelers. Metcalf is facing added competition for targets in the form of Michael Pittman (hamstring), who also is expected to be ready for the Week 1 opener.

Mevis made his lone extra-point try and didn't attempt any field goals in the Rams' Week 1 loss to San Francisco.

The Rams offense was held in check by a spirited San Francisco defense, and Mevis' only opportunity to kick came following Los Angeles' lone touchdown early in the second quarter. Mevis also didn't see a ton of FG tries during his rookie campaign last year, but that was largely because Los Angeles was so adept at getting into the end zone -- he went 12-for-13 on field-goal attempts and 39-for-39 on PAT tries across nine regular-season games. The Rams offense figures to be much more productive most weeks, so Mevis should see more frequent scoring opportunities moving forward.

Darnold (hip) received "really, really good news" regarding his injury, according to coach Mike McDonald, ESPN.com reports. "His hip is intact, and it's good," McDonald said Thursday.

Darnold (hip) is expected to miss Seattle's Week 2 game against the Cardinals, Ian Rapoport of ESPN and NFL Network reports.

Darnold (hip) is expected to miss some time due to the hip injury he sustained in Wednesday's 13-10 win over the Patriots, but the Seahawks believe their starting quarterback has "dodged a bullet," Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

White (hamstring) wasn't listed on the Commanders' initial Week 1 injury report Wednesday.

Ferguson failed to haul in his lone target during the Rams' 27-7 loss to the 49ers in Week 1.

Ferguson (soreness) was not listed on the injury report the Rams released Tuesday, according to Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com.
