Will the 49ers make a trade deadline splash?

The 49ers are 6-0, quarterback Brock Purdy is playing some of the best football of his career, and a new-look defense is thriving under coordinator Raheem Morris. Despite the impressive start, injuries have wiped out depth at key positions and GM John Lynch is considering ways to upgrade the roster before the NFL’s Nov. 10 trade deadline. With wide receiver Mike Evans managing Achilles tendinitis, is another pass catcher the most pressing need? With Nick Bosa sidelined by a calf strain, should the 49ers load up on pass rushers? Or should the front office prioritize another position? On the “Section 415” podcast, The Standard’s David Lombardi joins host Kerry Crowley to discuss how the 49ers’ injury situation will shape their approach to the trade deadline.

The 49ers are 6-0, quarterback Brock Purdy is playing some of the best football of his career, and a new-look defense is thriving under coordinator Raheem Morris. Despite the impressive start, injuries have wiped out depth at key positions and GM John Lynch is considering ways to upgrade the roster before the NFL’s Nov. 10 trade deadline.

Or should the front office prioritize another position? On the “Section 415” podcast, The Standard’s David Lombardi joins host Kerry Crowley to discuss how the 49ers’ injury situation will shape their approach to the trade deadline.
