San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy missed practice Wednesday and backup Mac Jones was limited while dealing with two injuries. Purdy missed three of the past four games with a turf toe issue and his availability for Sunday's game at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers doesn't look promising. 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters he doesn't believe Purdy needs a stint on injured reserve. "It hasn't been a thought on (placing Purdy on) IR," Shanahan said. "He's progressing." Jones has been dealing with a left knee issue since Week 3. Shanahan said Jones also has an oblique injury, which apparently occurred while he was getting hit hard and often during a 26-23 overtime victory over the Los Angeles Rams on Oct. 2. The third quarterback for the 49ers is Adrian Martinez, who was promoted from the practice squad last week. There was a time against the Rams where Jones remained down on the ground from a hit and eventually was gingerly helped off the field. But he was back on the field when San Francisco next possessed the ball. Purdy was one of seven 49ers slated to miss Wednesday's practice due to injuries. Prior to the workout, Shanahan said receivers Jauan Jennings (ankle/rib), Ricky Pearsall (knee) and Jordan Watkins (calf), defensive ends Robert Beal Jr. (ankle) and Yetur Gross-Matos (knee/hamstring) and defensive tackle Alfred Collins (knee) would sit out. Jones was one of five limited practice participants, along with defensive linemen C.J. West (thumb), Kalia Davis (hand) and Kevin Givens (pectoral) and cornerback Upton Stout (ankle). Jones was 33-of-49 passing for 342 yards and two touchdowns against the Rams. He has passed for 905 yards, six touchdowns and one interceptions in 129 pass attempts. Purdy has thrown for 586 yards, four touchdowns and four interceptions on 73 passes. Also, Shanahan said that star tight end George Kittle (hamstring) could return to practice next week. He was injured in Week 1. –Field Level Media

(Updates with Trump social media post, Netanyahu statement) * LATEST DEVELOPMENTS * Trump announces Israel and Hamas agree to first phase of Gaza peace deal * Trump says all hostages will be released 'very soon' * Trump says all parties will be treated fairly By Nidal al-Mughrabi and Steve Holland CAIRO/WASHINGTON, Oct 8 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that Israel and Hamas had reached a long-sought deal for a Gaza ceasefire and hostage release under his plan for ending the two-year-old war in the Palestinian enclave. Just a day after the second anniversary of Hamas' attack on Israel that triggered Israel's devastating assault on Gaza, indirect talks in Egypt yielded an agreement on the initial stage of Trump’s 20-point framework. The deal, if implemented, would bring the two sides closer than any previous effort to halt a war that had evolved into a regional conflict, drawing in countries such as Iran, Yemen and Lebanon, and reshaping the Middle East. "I am very proud to announce that Israel and Hamas have both signed off on the first Phase of our Peace Plan," Trump said on Truth Social. "This means that ALL of the Hostages will be released very soon, and Israel will withdraw their Troops to an agreed upon line as the first steps toward a Strong, Durable, and Everlasting Peace," Trump added. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a written statement, referring to the hostages held by Hamas: "With God's help we will bring them all home. Trump said earlier that a deal was almost done and that he may travel to Egypt this weekend, possibly leaving as soon as Saturday. "All Parties will be treated fairly!" he said on Truth Social. "This is a GREAT Day for the Arab and Muslim World, Israel, all surrounding Nations, and the United States of America, and we thank the mediators from Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey, who worked with us to make this Historic and Unprecedented Event happen.
